It is not legally required in Texas for health care employees to take flu vaccinations, but the state has mandated that employers must make the vaccinations available to those employees. The employee in Texas may refuse the flu shot, but if they do, the hospital may require that those employees wear protective devices to keep patients safe, such as face masks or respirators, at all times when on the premises.
In Canada:
This happened to my husband in his place of work in British Columbia, Canada and the employer cannnot make an employee take the flu shots and cannot fire an employee for refusing.
There are some cases if you work in the medical field where you are warned before hired that you must take flu shots because you are dealing with people that are ill already. Other than this they can't force you!
In the US employers can order employees to obtain flu shots if they are in the medical or care giving profession such as nursing homes, child care workers, home health care providers, and so forth.
The exception is if such procedures are contrary to a person's religious or ethnic doctorine or would present a risk to the person's health.
If the employee refuses whether or not they were given previous information of the requirement they can be legally terminated.

Can a employer make their employees work 7 days a week as a punishment?
An employer is never in a position to 'punish' an employee, and is in big legal trouble if he does it and the employee can prove it in court. No law restricts an employer's right to discipline employees with schedule changes. Employers face no court imposed liability for doing so. An employer can't 'make' his employees do anything. The employer can state the work assignment, and then each employee is free to choose among three options in response: 1). Comply, 2). Negotiate, 3). Walk.
