At least a dozen former Metrolinx employees, including long-time staff and senior managers, are suing their ex-employer for a combined $2.09 million after being suspended without pay for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
In separate lawsuits filed last December, the former employees say they were treated with “callous disregard” when Metrolinx placed them on indefinite leaves of absence last November because they chose not to get two doses of an authorized COVID-19 vaccine by the Nov. 1 deadline Metrolinx prescribed.
Would a single win open the floodgates?
