SOCCCD employees: a $1000 incentive to get vaccinated?


On the 11th, I received this remarkable message from the district (the VC, Human Resources):

Colleagues, SOCCCD is pleased to announce a new vaccination incentive program for District employees that will be recommended to the SOCCCD Board of Trustees for approval at the August 23, 2021 Board Meeting. Employees who meet specific eligibility requirements will receive $1,000 (gross—per employee) if they produce verifiable evidence of vaccination. Eligible employees will be required to be currently employed on September 1, 2021 (see additional criteria below for PT faculty who will be working in spring 2022 only). 

Vaccination records shall be subject to verification through the California database. It is the employee’s responsibility to ensure that the State of California has the correct information related to the verification of your vaccination record. Unverified records will be deemed ineligible for the incentive, shall be fully investigated, and disciplinary action may be initiated if an employee is discovered to have submitted fraudulent/forged records….

—Meanwhile, as far as I know, there is no move afoot—in the district—to embrace vaccine mandates for students and employees. Why not?

MEANWHILE:  Orange County Board of Education will sue Newsom over face masks 

OC Register

Board members say that Gov. Newsom has misused his power “in a way that threatens serious harm to Orange County’s children.”

What a great way to monitor who did and didn’t get vaccinated. Violation of right to privacy? Retaliatory?

Your $1000 incentive won’t be enough to cover my hospitalization and funeral after getting that poison injected into my body! Wake up professors, respect people’s basic human rights! Why I will never get vaccinated: https://www.globalresearch.ca/31-reasons-why-i-wont-take-vaccine/5740534

The board needs to step up and mandate vaccinations and/or testing as a condition for returning to campus. People who opt out can take classes online and/or work from home.

Santa Monica's college board adopted a vaccine mandate that includes students:

Watch out for the conspiratorial trolls!

A vaccine mandate for those who wish to return to campus is the ay to go. Without it they will continue to shift back to online with every new variant. This is exhausting. We need courageous leadership now.

Back to online until the recall election. Another election manipulation. Simple logic!

Courageous leadership means keeping these professors in line. The administrators and the Board should not allow a handful of control freaks run the district. These professors cannot even run their respective classes effectively and professionally--the students will tell you. The community college system has become subservient to the communist rule.
