Unvaccinated Nationals and Astros employees who were terminated in August are not being paid or getting health benefits for the remainder of their contracts, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal and Britt Ghiroli.
The health benefits for these employees were slated to go into October or later, per The Athletic. Employees who were not vaccinated by Aug. 27 violated their respective team policies.
Washington told its employees on Aug. 12 that they would need to show proof of vaccination by Aug. 26 or offer a medical or religious exemption as reasons for not taking the vaccine.
