The TTC’s largest union is ramping up its fight against the transit agency’s vaccine mandate, claiming in new legal filings that the policy requiring employees to get their COVID-19 shots is a violation of provincial labour law.
In a pair of applications made to the Ontario Labour Relations Board on Tuesday, Amalgamated Transit Union Local 113, which represents nearly 12,000 TTC employees, alleges management has engaged in unfair labour practices by imposing two COVID-related policies in recent weeks. The applications have not been tested at the board.
