For the first time, workers at private companies are required to show proof of vaccination as new mandates take effect Monday in New York City.

The mandate to reduce the spread of COVID and the Omicron variant impacts about 184,000 companies, CBS2’s John Dias reported.

Private-sector workers will have to show proof of at least one dose of the COVID vaccine in order to return to work. Businesses must have a record of employee vaccinations available for inspection and display a certificate of compliance.
