Media Release: Despite vaccine rollout boasts, AHS puts needless barriers in way of nurses’ vaccinations una.ca/1237/despite-v… #abhealth #covid19ab #ableg
Despite the Government of Alberta news release boasting about Alberta’s vaccine rollout for health care workers, Alberta Health Services is putting needless barriers in the way of nurses being vaccinated. #abhealth #ableg
United Nurses of Alberta has filed a grievance against Alberta Health Services for a new policy requiring nurses to use unpaid leave or vacation time to be vaccinated against COVID-19. #abhealth #ableg
Despite the clear language of the collective agreement, AHS is claiming that if the purpose of the medical appointment is to be vaccinated against the COVID-19, they will not apply the collective agreement. #abhealth #ableg
“It appears that this is being done in retaliation for UNA’s decision to decline to agree to the employer’s request to renew a Memorandum of Agreement that includes a pause on bargaining" said UNA's David Harrigan. #abhealth #ableg
By placing barriers to having health care workers vaccinated, AHS is putting the health, safety and lives of Albertans at risk. Putting up barriers to vaccination shouldn’t be used as a labour relations tactic. #abhealth #ableg
