May 24 (Reuters) – United Airlines (UAL.O) and its pilots’ union have reached an agreement to prohibit the airline from mandating COVID-19 vaccinations to its pilots, the Air Line Pilots Association said on Monday.
“Since the COVID vaccination is not mandatory, pilots who elect not to be vaccinated will not be subject to any discipline,” the agreement stated.
United’s chief executive officer, Scott Kirby, had told workers at a meeting in January that the company may make the vaccine mandatory for employees and urged other companies to do the same. read more
The agreement between the airline and the union also adds that those pilots who have been vaccinated would be eligible for extra pay.
Earlier this month, Delta Air Lines (DAL.N) said it would require all new hires in the United States to be vaccinated against the coronavirus. read more

While private U.S. companies can require employees to get vaccinated against COVID-19, experts have said they could put themselves at risk of legal and cultural backlash if they do so.
