Why more than half of Taco Bell workers are unvaccinated

Protecting executives, not the public Corporate executives understand that to stay safe, the people around them need to be vaccinated. At Taco Bell, for example, all corporate employees will be required to be vaccinated by January 3, 2022. Taco Bell is instituting a COVID-19 vaccination mandate for health and safety reasons. Effective January 3, 2022, Taco Bell requires that corporate employees are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as a condition of employment. There is no such requirement at Taco Bell restaurants, including company-owned locations.

According to the Shift survey, 56% of McDonald’s frontline employees are vaccinated.
