LA Metro worker shortages due to vaccine mandate

Posted by Easy on Mon Dec 6 21:18:16 2021

The vaccine mandate for LA Metro went into effect on December 1 and since then multiple train and bus lines have had daily notices of reduced service due to "staff issues". Over 40% of union members remain unvaccinated and have been threatened with termination.

More than a quarter of L.A. County Metro employees have yet to show proof that they are vaccinated against COVID-19, despite the transportation authority imposing a recent deadline for workers to get the shots or face possible termination.

The latest figures from Metro indicate that 72% of its employees have shown they were vaccinated. Those numbers, which do not include workers out on leave, are lower among some categories of employees — most notably operators and schedule checkers, who reported only a 58% vaccination rate.
