Subject: Official Information request - Terminated staff due to
vaccination status at Auckland Council and covid sick days

 

 

Dear Auckland Council,

I would like to know the number of Auckland Council staff who were
1. terminated from their employment or place on any form of " extended
leave" due to not being vaccinated for Covid-19 in 2021 and 2022.

2. granted Special Covid-19 Leave between 22nd November 2021 and 2nd July
2022. (Ie they were sick from Covid-19 and off work on paid sick leave
under "special covid19 leave")
- The total headcount of staff at this time of granting special covid-19
leave

I also request the information on the date that Auckland Council
implemented a covid-19 vaccination policy for its employees,
and the date this policy was removed (if removed).

Yours faithfully,

Erika Whittome
