this is the thin edge of the wedge. There are going to be some very happy attorneys over all this! House prices in Sun Valley, Idaho are shooting up because of the expected surge in demand…
A health care system that operates hospitals and clinics in two states has agreed to pay more than $1 million to settle allegations it discriminated against religious employees.
… The probe found evidence that Mercyhealth engaged in discrimination by denying employees religious exemptions to its COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
Mercyhealth also fired the workers, or lowered their wages, and discriminated against other workers by denying them a chance to even request religious accommodation, instead terminating them or withholding pay, according to the EEOC.
But Mercyhealth is doing it’s best to put a positive spin on this:
“Mercyhealth respects the religious beliefs and practices of its employees,” Kara Sankey, vice president of clinical operations and chief nursing officer for Mercyhealth, told The Epoch Times in an emailed statement
Uhm, no it doesn’t! THAT is exactly why they are paying out a million bucks! It wouldn’t be doing crap if they hadn’t been caught and cornered like a rabid rat. They are NOT “just doing the right thing.” No they went here kicking and screaming the whole way. They’re only saying this now as an effort to escape the gallows…
