Class Action Alleges AstraZeneca Engaged in 'Corporate Scheme' to Fire Older Unvaccinated Workers | Delaware Law Weekly

AstraZeneca engaged in purposeful age discrimination when it terminated several employees over 40 years old for holding religious objections to the company’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate, according to a class action lawsuit filed against the company in Delaware’s federal court.

“The complaint alleges that AstraZeneca purposefully removed older and religious employees from its workforce. We look forward to seeking justice on their behalf,” Walker Moller, co-counsel for the plaintiffs at Siri & Glimstad, told Law.com.





Thomas S. Neuberger of The Neuberger Firm, along with co-counsel at Siri & Glimstad, filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of seven plaintiffs who were fired from AstraZeneca after they refused to comply with the company’s vaccine policy.

The lawsuit brought claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as well as Title II violations of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
