Credit for Experience 33.01 Credit for nursing experience will be credited on the following basis: (a) The Employer will credit a newly hired regular full-time nurse with one (1) annual service increment for each completed year of related experience up to the after eight (8) years step of the salary grid and credit a regular part-time nurse, up to the after twelve thousand (12,000) hours step, based on substantiated hours worked. (b) If there has been a break in excess of two years in the nurses’ full-time or part-time employment, then the number of increments to be provided shall be at the discretion of the Employer. 33.02 In order to receive credit for experience it is the nurse’s responsibility to provide the Employer with verification satisfactory to the Employer, of previous related experience during her probationary period. Should a nurse fail to provide such satisfactory verification during her probation she shall forfeit the provisions of this Article. 33.03 Once established consistent with the above provisions, credit for recent related experience will be retroactive to the new nurses date of hire. 33.04 Nurses on staff prior to the signing of this agreement, will be credited with experience as set out under this Article, effective the first full pay period following the date the Employer has confirmed entitlement to such increment, subject to 33.02 above.
For example If an employee utilises two weeks recreation leave over a period of four weeks at half pay, service based entitlements (e.g. personal leave, long service leave, paid parental leave) will be deferred by two weeks.
