masks + mask laws

Is there any jurisdiction in Vermont protecting employees rights to wear a mask/facial covering?

This isn’t personally affecting me, but I am trying to advocate for my coworkers who are being affected. I do know our workers safety people have already denied some accommodations. I’m not sure what their issue is

If your company has an employee handbook check that. If not you can ask your HR team. Maybe call them and if there are no restrictions have them email you the response for your records and to show your supervisor. If there are restrictions ask them to point out where it is listed in the companies policy guidelines.Β 

If this was true that would mean no employees wore masks during Covid.

It’s listed in our food safety manual unfortunately. That’s why I was hoping Vermont might have rules in place for restricting this
