The update removes the vaccination requirement for outdoor contractors and volunteers whose work does not involve delivery of health care services. Examples include contracted landscapers, contracted or volunteer wildland firefighters, and contracted construction workers.
Vaccination requirements remain unchanged for all other categories of workers and volunteers.
The updated order is effective immediately.
