Biden officials have said companies could face penalties of up to $14,000 per violation.  <\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>The Consumer Brands Association \u2014 which represents the $2.1 trillion food, beverage and consumer products industry that employs 2.1 million workers \u2014 urged federal agencies to &#8220;move quickly, anticipate challenges, promptly answer questions&#8221; and partner with businesses to implement the new plan. <\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;The Consumer Brands Association and our member companies stand ready to partner with you in getting Americans vaccinated,&#8221; Freeman wrote. <\/p>\n<p>The letter to Biden included a &#8220;small sampling&#8221; of questions that have surfaced among business leaders, including:<br \/>\nWhat is considered documentation for proof of vaccination and how will booster shots factor into compliance?<br \/>\nWill the requirements only apply to vaccines that are fully approved by the FDA?<br \/>\nDoes the government plan to centralize vaccination tracking?<br \/>\nWhat are the consequences of falsifying one&#8217;s vaccination status or test results?<br \/>\nWhat is considered suitable documentation for a negative test result?<br \/>\nShould employees choose not to vaccinate, is the company or employee responsible for securing and paying for testing?<br \/>\nWhen will the requirements be formally issued?<br \/>\nDo the new federal requirements include exemptions for religious beliefs and disabilities?<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"United Airlines workers with religious objections to the Covid vaccine will be placed on unpaid leave\" class=\"media__image\" src=\"\/\/cdn.cnn.com\/cnnnext\/dam\/assets\/210910115916-united-airlines-plane-0814-large-169.jpg\"><br \/>\nThe questions underscore the uncertainty created by the Biden plan and hint at frustration in the business community over the federal government&#8217;s response throughout the pandemic. <\/p>\n<ul><\/ul>\n<p>In an interview Friday, Betsy Booren, vice president of regulatory affairs at the Consumer Brands Association, told CNN Business that the industry was surprised by the Biden announcement and would have liked to have seen more details in the initial rollout.<br \/>\n&#8220;But that&#8217;s been a concern I&#8217;ve had during this whole crisis, regardless of the administration in place,&#8221; Booren said. &#8220;Whether it was the Trump or Biden administration, getting clarity around these issues has been our concern.&#8221;<br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2021\/09\/13\/business\/biden-vaccine-order-consumer-ceo\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York (CNN Business)The trade group that represents consumer brands including Coca-Cola (COKE), Kellogg (K) and Campbell Soup (CPB) fired off a letter to President [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":121276,"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 -
