(Antigua Observer) Public sector workers who are seeking exemptions for the Covid-19 vaccine mandate will now have an extended period to submit these forms.
The revelation came after the President of Antigua and Barbuda Union of Teachers (A&BUT) Kimdale Mackellar took the government to task over the lack of communication and late distribution of the medical and religious exemption forms.
According to Mackellar, Cabinet’s actions are continuously short-changing his members since distribution of the forms began on Monday, with the expectation that workers seeking exemption had to notify their Permanent Secretary (PS) or head of department no later than Wednesday.
