Experience Recognition. A registered employee with recent and related experience may claim consideration for such experience at the time of hire. Verification of previous related experience is required. Such experience will be evaluated by the Director of Care, or her designate, during the probationary period. Where such experience is determined to be relevant, the employee shall, upon completion of the employee's probationary period, advance 1 year on the grid for every full year of relevant experience. If a period of more than two (2) years has elapsed since the employee has occupied a full-time or a part-time nursing position, then the number of increments to be paid, if any, shall be at the discretion of the Employer. Employees placed higher on the grid than provided for in this Article shall not be moved backward on the grid.
