The proposed fine is $14k/per day per non compliant employee.
No small or medium size business could survive that…..
Regardless of belief, the owners would be forced to terminate those employees……
Or, they could en-masse so 'No" and ignore the federal government and the enforcing agencies. Sure, it make life hard for them. In the face of such widespread civil disobedience, efforts to enforce this tyranny would collapse. I know it's a pipe dream. That sort of courage is almost nonexistent in America today. Instead people will bitch about it, then go along so that they don't have to face any hardship. Some brave souls will stand up; too few though.
this would absolutely shut down parts of our business

That is the maximum fine, but company size and revenue are considered by OSHA when assessing a fine. For the same violation Exxon and Joe’s Garage would not pay the same fine. Not defending the vaccine mandates by any means but that’s the way it works. The first question OSHA asks when conducting an inspection or investigation is the company’s federal tax I.D. number.
