(Reuters) – Bank of America Corp will offer its employees in the United States paid time off when they become eligible to get the COVID-19 vaccine, Bloomberg News reported on Friday, citing a memo.
Staff will have the option to use two half days, for up to four hours each, for vaccination appointments this year, according to the report. (https://bloom.bg/2O8ssTi)
The policy is designed to accommodate the two-dose regimen current vaccines require, Bloomberg News said.
Bank of America did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
