Vaccine mandates and other governmental requirements related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could have an adverse impact on our business financial condition and results of operations.
Subsequent to our Annual report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended August 29, 2021, the Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announced a vaccine mandate, originally effective beginning January 4, 2022, which requires COVID-19 vaccinations or at least weekly COVID-19 testing for all United States employers with 100 or more employees. Whether and when the mandate will take effect depends on judicial challenges that are pending. This mandate, and similar mandates in place and potentially forthcoming at the state and local level, could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain employees, increase expenses, and pose operational issues with respect to testing requirements.
