NYC Workers: TAKE ACTION NOW!
Contact your union today and tell them to ensure the NYC Mayor gets the rule change allowing fired unvaccinated workers to return to work in front of the New York Civil Service Commission on 1-14-26
NYC’s Office of the Mayor announced last month that they were implementing a “right to return” for fired unvaccinated workers to come back to work for NYC. Teachers, cops, firefighters, sanitation workers and more who declined the COVID shot would be allowed to get back to working for NYC without having to sign a legal waiver.
However the rule change required to put this into effect has stalled at the New York State Civil Service Commission in Albany. Last month it was supposed to be voted on, but the item was not on the agenda. The Mayor of NYC needed to present the rule change to the committee and to have it voted on, but it appears that did not happen.
Every NYC worker - including those who got vaccinated - needs to contact their unions with the below message. We need our union brothers & sisters to stand with us, and tell leadership to call the Mayor and tell him to let unvaccinated workers come back to work!

There was a rule change announced from the Mayor’s office that fired unvaccinated workers would have a “right to return” to work for the city. The last hurdle for this new rule was with the Civil Service Commission. Last month the rule change was not sent to the commission for a vote. This is outrageous!
The next meeting of NY State Civil Service Commission is on January 14 at 10 am in Albany.
The people who need to put pressure on the Mayor to make sure this rule change is presented for a vote are our union leaders. Please reach out to the Mayor today and tell him to get this rule change in front of the Civil Service Commission for a vote on January 14.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
