KYR - KNOW YOUR RIGHTS

As an Unprecepted Security Officer, any Employer who tells you that you must be vaccinated by a particular date and threatens to cut your duties or send you home, must put that in writing. SHOW UP FOR DUTY AND DEMAND WRITTEN NOTIFICATION.

The Union can't do anything about your matter unless you're willing to come forward and file a grievance against the Company. Public Statements won't improve our situation. Only ACTION will. That's the strongest statement that workers can make.
