The University’s influenza vaccination mandate was different from an influenza prevention policy requiring nurses who declined to get an immunization or take antiviral medication to wear masks while on duty, which was a work rule that affected nurses’ working conditions and thus was within the scope of representation. The University’s influenza vaccination mandate is more than a mere work rule because it applies to all individuals who work, live, or study on University premises. (p. 26.)
