Brothers and Sisters I am disgusted with the result today. I am very disappointed to tell you that the Board of Health was presented with more than 90% of the comments today in opposition to the mandate. They didn't listen to us. We have a tough road ahead and I do not envy the decisions that you will be faced with. FOP members you will have legal backing when and if you are faced with an adverse disciplinary action. To all others who are not covered by our legal defense benefit, we will attempt to help in any way we can. Be safe and take care of each other.
As a member , i am interested to know what FOP is going to do about this experimental shot the NDOC is forcing upon us to keep our jobs . FOP needs to file an injunction with the CBA ASAP !
Some officers are planning to let the department fire them so they can collect unemployment but last night in a conversation with several veteran officers, it was discovered that you don't collect unemployment if they fire you for cause, meaning if you get fired for insubordination, you don't get to collect unemployment. If you're telling officers not to quit and let the department fire you, you might be doing more harm than good. Correct me if I'm wrong here.
So are we going to file an injunction to try and get this stopped. This was never negotiated under the CBA we can file one if afscme doesn’t the covers all employees so we can file one.
If your personal situation forces you to have to get the shot and stay with the job, I have one suggestion: Make the state pay. You sprain a pinky toe? Fill out a C-1. Get a papercut? Fill out a C-1. Bruise your knee in a use of force incident? Fill out a C-1. Go to concentra, go to physical therapy, go see specialists, whatever. Never let this place off the hook for anything anymore. Does your unit have broken a broken chair? Notify OSHA. Something dangerous in your unit or around your workspace? Call OSHA. Make sure it is federal OSHA people, not the state people who will cover for the state. Do not give an inch. Read the…
Wtf they lower our pay make our insurance worse then it already was and now want to force this shit on us. And not all state employees just certain departments. How much of this are we gunna take.
