Here are the email addresses for fired unvaccinated NYC workers to contact to seek reinstatement

Emails must be sent by December 5, 2025

Unvaccinated NYC workers fired from their jobs who want to seek reinstatement need to email their respective agencies before December 5. Below are email addresses for four NYC agencies to use in this process.

If your agency is not listed you need to email the HR department of that agency. If you do not know that email address, please email Phyllis Inserillo at PInserillo@council.nyc.gov. Phyillis is the Chief of Staff for city council minority leader Joann Ariola. They have both been fighting to help unvaccinated workers for years.

If you are even remotely interested in returning to work in NYC you should send this email before December 5. While this is not legal advice I believe it is prudent advice. Sending the email does not commit you to anything other than meeting NYC’s deadline and seeking more information.

***REMEMBER*** Fired Unvaxxed NYC workers must send an email to the appropriate contact by Friday, December 5, 2025 if interested in reinstatement:
