Woman fuming after losing her job over Covid-19 vaccine policy

Photo: Supplied / Ministry of Health A new Health Order, in place since last week, made it mandatory for all border workers to have had at least their first Covid-19 vaccine. Nine Customs staff in total have been fired since the Order came in. One of the Customs workers found out she was being fired for refusing the Covid-19 vaccine last Thursday. The next day, the termination notice came through. The woman - who had been working for Customs at a regional port since late last year - has been left fuming at the decision. She said her job was never considered high-risk enough to qualify for the mandatory Covid-19 testing which applied to all border workers.

New Zealand fires nine border workers who refused Covid vaccine

The country has required all frontline border workers to be vaccinated by the end of April. In February, the prime minister, Jacinda Ardern, said the government would not be making the vaccine compulsory for frontline staff, and that those who declined the vaccine would be moved into backroom roles. But no other work could be found to redeploy the nine workers who were in fixed term employment at the maritime border, Jacinda Funnell, Customs’ deputy chief executive for people and capability, said.
