Yelp is adding details to listings, so users can see what COVID-19 guidelines businesses have implemented.<\/p>\n

Yelp users can filter businesses based on two new attributes: “Proof of vaccination required” and “All staff fully vaccinated,” the app<\/a> announced.<\/p>\n

Yelp plans to proactively monitor the pages of businesses that add these attributes to prevent any potential backlash.<\/p>\n

“Yelp’s Content Guidelines require that all reviews be based on a first-hand consumer experience,” Noorie Malik, Yelp’s vice president of operations, said in a blog post Thursday. “However, in recent weeks, we’ve seen a rise in reviews focused on people’s stance on COVID vaccinations rather than their actual experience with the business.”<\/p>\n

Yelp said that whenever a business experiences unusual activity on its listing such as “review bombing,” a coordinated effort to post negative reviews to drive down its rating, Yelp will temporarily disable posting and place an alert until activity slows.<\/p>\n

Yelp businesses can detail amenities such as mask requirements and whether all staffers wear masks.<\/p>\n

As the delta variant of the coronavirus spreads, governments and businesses have pushed for stricter vaccination requirements. Companies including Facebook<\/a> and United Airlines will require their employees to get vaccinated before they return to the office.\n <\/p>\n\n
