I started a job last September with a company which was willing to double my salary to come work for them. Now with having a couple facilities experiencing covid outbreaks. (Which seem fishy...37 people in a week and we never had more than 2 positive cases at one time before now.) The owner is starting to hard push for mandatory vacation to work there. If this happens I will be fighting back and potentially leaving the job. Has anyone else seen or had to deal with this yet? Should I preemptive move and talk with a lawyer?

Consult an attorney if you like the job. Be warned if they push it, and you push back, you will probably be treated as a pariah. I say fuck it and make them fire you, and have the attorney in the pocket for the pushback afterward. You'll find out quickly how bad they want to keep you if they decide not to push it and not fire you.

I can handle the treatment. That won't be a bother. They will have to fire me if the want me gone.

Same here, but I work on fed property, and when I get off injury status they want me to wear a mask or take a fine. Not sure what to do at this point, but might wing it
