COVID-19 Vaccinations
As of, Monday August 23, 2021, the Food and Drug Administration has formally
approved Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine. The approval replaces the emergency use
authorization granted by the agency in December 2020. As a result, NBC is

will have until October 1, 2021 to meet the requirement.
COVID-19 Vaccination Status
Employees who do not submit a copy of a valid vaccination card to NBC’s Human
Resources Office will be considered unvaccinated and are subject to all applicable
NBC COVID-19 requirements/restrictions. Additionally, they shall be subject to
the imposition of discipline, up to and including termination of employment with
NBC. Forms for relevant medical or religious exemptions are available through
Human Resources and must be promptly completed and submitted to Human
Resources for consideration to be given to a bona fide and legally-recognizable.
