Spirit AeroSystems has suspending the deadline for workers to get vaccinated against COVID-19, now that a federal judge blocked the Biden Administration from enforcing the mandate.
The company had been trying to get its workers vaccinated by a Jan. 4 deadline because of the mandates effect on federal contractors and subcontractors. The company said in a statement Thursday that:
"As further decisions are made by courts, Spirit will comply with applicable vaccine requirement(s) for employees."
They also encouraged their employees get the vaccine, or booster shots as they become eligible.
