The Steamship Authority is implementing a Coronavirus vaccination mandate for its employees.
Beginning today, employees need to demonstrate they have received at least one Covid-19 shot.
Full vaccination is required by February 16th.
Employees who do not comply could be fired. However, the Steamship Authority is offering a $500 incentive.
SSA General Manager Bob Davis says protecting the health and safety of the ferry line's employees and customers is a critical priority during the ongoing pandemic.
