News of the survey was first reported by the New York Times.<\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cracks emerge in the restaurant recovery as Delta variant rages\" class=\"media__image\" src=\"\/\/cdn.cnn.com\/cnnnext\/dam\/assets\/210810120417-restricted-restaurant-st-louis-missouri-07-31-2021-large-169.jpg\"><br \/>\nThe vaccine requirements reflect a desire from business leaders to make employees more comfortable about piling back into offices and an effort to boost vaccination rates &#8212; before even stronger variants emerge.<\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;Vaccine requirements are going to become the norm, not the exception,&#8221; said Constance Hunter, chief economist at KPMG. &#8220;Without them, there really is no safe way to go back to work. The Delta variant has proved this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In just the past few weeks, United Airlines, Google, Facebook, Tyson Foods, Equinox, Walmart and <span>Disney<\/span> <span>(<span>DIS<\/span>)<\/span> announced plans to require at least part of their workforce to get vaccinated. CNN parent WarnerMedia said Thursday that as of September 6 it will require proof of vaccination to enter US office buildings.<br \/>\nAfter meeting with the White House on vaccines, <span>United Airlines<\/span> <span>(<span>UAL<\/span>)<\/span> CEO Scott Kirby predicted &#8220;widespread&#8221; vaccine mandates across the nation.  <\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s really just a basic safety issue,&#8221; Kirby told CNN this week.<br \/>\nAlthough vaccine requirements are controversial, efforts to fight them in court have thus far proved futile. On Thursday, Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett declined a request to block Indiana University&#8217;s vaccine mandate, providing more evidence that similar policies could pass legal muster.<br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2021\/08\/13\/business\/vaccine-mandate-business\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York (CNN Business)A growing number of major companies are exploring vaccine mandates for their employees as the Delta variant continues to spread through America [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":119852,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>United Airlines CEO: Employee vaccine mandates are &#039;inevitable&#039;
