Indiana HB1196 prohibits employers from requiring COVID-19 immunizations and mandates penalties for violations.
Indiana HB1196 amends the state's employment laws to prohibit employers from requiring employees to receive COVID-19 immunizations. Employers may only require immunizations if they respect the employee's right to refuse. Employees must be free from coercion or adverse actions, including discrimination, based on their refusal. Employers offering immunizations at no cost must notify employees of their right to refuse. Violations may be reported to the Department of Labor, which will impose a $5,000 civil penalty per incident.
