Western Union has taken measures throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to prioritize the health and safety of our employees.
In an effort to provide a safe work environment, and in alignment with recent guidance for federal contractors, Western Union will require all newly hired employees in the United States to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 before their start date (with accommodation exceptions to the extent legally required).
