Arbitrator upholds vaccine mandate for Lower Mainland Coca Cola workers

Defence chief to review Canadian Armed Forces COVID-19 vaccine mandate Teamsters Local 213, which represents about 400 workers in Coquitlam, Richmond and Chilliwack took the matter to arbitration, arguing that the policy was unreasonable, and was not applied equally.Coca Cola said the policy was necessary to protect workers, and pointed to several major COVID outbreaks at Canadian facilities, including one that required a major cleanup in Kelowna and one in Calgary where two workers died.The union argued that the policy allowed the company to “force its employees to undergo an invasive medical procedure,” which it characterized as a “gross invasion” of their individual rights.It said there had been few infections at the Richmond and Coquitlam facilities prior to January 2022, and that the virus continued to spread after January — when all employees working had received at least two doses, suggesting that the mandate was not effective in its stated goal.It further argued that the policy wasn’t being equally applied, as some salaried employees working from home weren’t required to be vaccinated. Judge rejects B.C.
