Q: I want to encourage my employees to get vaccinated for COVID-19 and other vaccines such as the flu. Can I offer different sick leave banks to those who are vaccinated?

A: This is a very complicated question, and you should probably seek legal advice regarding specific issues for your business. While in general, you could offer incentives of this type, it can impact the wellness rules and there may be issues with accommodations for those with disabilities or other objections such as religious exemptions to vaccines.
