New York City Teacher’s Union Wins Battle Over COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate
“New York City’s largest teacher’s union has won a battle to keep teachers and other educators employed if they suffer from certain medical conditions and don’t want to comply as a result with the Big Apple’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
An arbitrator ruled late Friday that teachers with certain documented medical afflictions must be offered assignments outside of classrooms and be kept on the city’s payroll.
Other educators who don’t want a COVID-19 vaccine must be offered unpaid leave that keeps in place their health coverage or a severance package.
City officials announced last month that all 148,000 Department of Education employees would have to get a COVID-19 vaccine, with limited exemptions.”
Take the Money and RUN !!!!
Great…hopefully a precedent setting case
And hopefully a mass “layoff”
The School Board will be paying them MORE to come back …just wait and see
And…they won’t come back….they will be hired by Private schools and Co Op Schools
This can happen !!! Lets help it to happen .
Guess it is making the best out of a bad situation. The union looking out for it’s members is understandable but the whole thing is BS, just like with the exemption for the Post Office at the Federal Level and for Congress and the Admin. Anything that is mandated has to be for Everyone! That is the only way you get to the “heart of the matter”. If the bozo’s putting these rules in place have to live by them, then you get rules based on fact, science, logic and results, otherwise it is based on political BS.
