Thread regarding Optum layoffs

Any progress on this class action law suit? Very difficult to connect with others, of course! If somebody has an attorney, that info would be helpful.

Quit-would not want to stay at any US empire corporation that requires some experimental junk in the body all to keep a lame job to pay endless bills, fees, and taxes galore in the cesspool "country"/corporation.

This is probably why everyone is getting raise. The government is printing money endlessly raising the consumer price index to ridiculous numbers which will soon cause an economic collapse. https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/consumer-price-index-cpi

It has more to do with McDonalds paying $15 the lower middle class is getting crushed.

Now that I think of it. Those who got a substation raise were probably being substantially underpaid. I bet the increase was to keep us at this job but its still lower than a company like Anthem might offer for the same job.

My raise was also to be effective 9/12, today it still shows my old rate. Yes, these were all "market adjustment raises", but coincidentally given the same day the vaccine mandate email was sent out. I believe in hopes to make it harder to leave your position and easier to give in and get the vaccine. Surprised to get a major increase like this, I knew there would be strings attached regardless of what lie I was being told.

I also got a substantial raise randomly on friday and my boss said it would take effect on monday but i looked at my pay and it didnt change and it still hasnt changed as of Wednesday. Was it a bluff? I've never received a random raise like this and I've worked for Optum for a long time.

How do they determine who gets a market adjustment and who does not? I know some who got one and some who did not and they are all on the same team.

They had some market adjustments done recently. Nothing to do with vaccines.

To posted that got a substantial raise, how? When? Why? If I had to report my vaxx status, I’d like to also be compensated!

Federal Court in NY rules vaccine mandate illegal!!!

Good luck with a class action lawsuit, the Supreme Court has consistently ruled that the Government has a right to require vaccines. UHG is just following the federal guidelines so you’ll have to sue the Feds.

You can double check with our competitors (Cigna/Aetna/etc) but I suspect they’ll have the same rules.

Better brace yourself for open enrollment too, I fully expect an unvaccinated surcharge to be applied.

It's a coercion tactic by biden but using Osha. It was brought up there is some rule says they do not have authority over wfh. Nothing has been issued yet but I would expect an injunction as soon as made public. Depends on how unh wants to handle ultimately but class action lawsuits will be easy to join and for a low pay employees could be well worth it.

Really curious to know how this will affect work at home employees. When does this go into effect exactly?

If don’t like mandates, just leave. Why work here if you think mandating vaccine is overreach. I don’t want to be working around people who can be dangerous to other’s health. Who knows what else someone who don’t take vaccine has going in their body.

I've got to get a shot of wh----y and a smoke while I think about injecting this poison into my body that could keep the ICU units open for people in real need.

Yes - someone smarter than me please figure out a way that we can all connect. Most people are working from home now, whether considered full-time telecommuter or not..people are afraid to talk about it, so makes it difficult to organize.

I’m in and I have the contacts as they have already filed against DOJ for their mandates for the military.

All products actually available are still under emergency use authorization.
Religious exemptions are parts of our rights and this also includes for the EUA nasal swabs.

@rgg+1cOUfDrU - Unconstitutional. Company has not right to dictate a dr-g that is not needed.

The only FDA approved dr-g is not something you can get. The ones you can get are approved for emergency authorization. I will take my chances with the cold.

If OSHA regulates the work place, how the he-l do they think they can regulate your “workplace” if you are a full time telecommuter? Do they now think they own your home which is your personal property?

There will be even further staffing issues across all industries. Check the latest inflation predictions from the fed. Good luck everyone with this Government.

Company is well within its legal rights to mandate a vaccine requirement. Same thing if they require you to pass a dr-g screening test. Or a background check before you got hired.

Even if you took the vaccine, you should not verify that you did. This is overreach. The company could institute a surcharge on their insurance rates like smoking but to mandate it, nope....

Out of nowhere, I got a substantial raise Friday. My 1st thought was hush money for getting the jab. Saw this coming... Hopefully like myself, others plan to stand up for themselves and will not be paid off. #ImpeachBiden

Considering you can't take an FDA approved dr-g what could go wrong?

Yes

Yes I’m in
