Common use of Extra Shifts Pay Clause in Contracts

Extra Shifts Pay. Extra Shifts Pay shall be ten dollars ($10.00) per hour for RNs and six dollars ($6.00) per hour for PRNs. As described in Section 13 (Posting and Changing Schedules) of Article 4 of the Agreement, the scheduling cycle covers four (4) weeks. Work schedules are prepared based on an attempt to match an RN’s FTE status with anticipated staffing needs. Part- time and full-time nurses are generally penciled into the schedule according to their commitment of general availability reflected by their FTE status. Nurses who have committed more than seventy-two (72) and up to eighty (80) hours for each fourteen (14)-day pay period in the scheduling cycle are regarded as full-time, and nurses who have committed thirty-two (32) to up to seventy-one (71) hours are regarded as part- time. In addition, PRN nurses are generally expected to work forty-eight (48) hours each quarter without specific advance commitment, while recognizing that PRNs are eligible for Extra Shift Pay after working sixty (60) hours in a calendar quarter. To address possible shortfalls in available nurse hours, the Hospital commits to the following Extra Shift Pay Program. The Extra Shift Pay Program is designed to encourage nurses to reach beyond their regular staffing commitment to work beyond, or in excess of, their normal hours during periods when there is a shortage of previously-committed nurse hours. Any extra shift assignment accepted, including partial shifts, may be treated as an extra shift for qualifying purposes under this section. If a nurse is placed on low census in the same week they had signed up for an extra shift, they will receive the extra shift pay even though they haven’t met their regularly scheduled hours. On the draft schedule, the nurse may sign up for extra shifts, and the manager will concur which shifts are extra beyond the nurse’s regularly-scheduled hours. The nurse will commit for extra shifts on the final schedule with the manager’s agreement, and this commitment will be annotated on the final schedule. The Extra Shift Pay Program does not apply to shift trades arranged between nurses. Extra Shift Differential will be paid in addition to other applicable premium rates, including overtime. Short-Notice Shifts. It is recognized that an unexpected absence of a scheduled nurse or sudden and unanticipated change in patient census may result in extra shift needs on short notice. Where a nurse commits to work beyond the nurse's normal FTE to fill such shifts on less than twenty-four (24) hours' notice, the extra shift premiums specified in paragraph 1 above shall apply. It is recognized that the Hospital, at its sole discretion, will schedule such extra shifts based on management's assessment of patient acuity, available nursing skills, and cost of services. If these factors are relatively equal, priority shall be given to volunteers who regularly are scheduled in the unit (including cross-trained nurses working in more than one unit) over volunteers regularly scheduled in a different unit It is understood the premium applies regardless of whether the hours worked under the Extra Shift Pay Program constitute a full regular "shift," so long as the nurse works the hours assigned under the Extra Shift Pay Program.
