NYC teachers win jobs back with backpay after refusing COVID-19 vaccine
Yes, it is possible for teachers in New York City (NYC) to win their jobs back with backpay after refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine. According to an article published in Chalkbeat, the NYC school district agreed to rehire about 20 teachers who had been fired for not receiving the vaccine. As part of the agreement, the district will also pay them backpay for the time that they were not employed. The agreement comes after the teachers union filed an unfair labor practice charge against the school district.
