Vaccinated workers in California will no longer have to wear masks in most jobs, after Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday afternoon signed an executive order he said would become effective Friday.
Newsom had said earlier in the day that he would wait for a vote by Cal/OSHA on its new workplace rules before he signed the order. The agency, under heavy pressure from Newsom and businesses, voted Thursday afternoon to do away with mask requirements for vaccinated employees and align with state rules.
