Order of Call-In from Low Census Sample Clauses

Order of Call-In from Low Census. If additional hours of work become available on the unit and shift after low census is assigned, nurses from the unit and shift on low census with standby will be called in first in the reverse order called off, unless already working on another unit. Any nurse who has received 200 or more hours of low census (whether mandatory or voluntary, paid or unpaid) in that calendar year may elect not to take low census as long as there is another nurse on the same shift and unit who can be placed on low census and who has not yet received 200 hours of low census in that calendar year. However, in the event that the Medical Center determines that it is necessary to assign mandatory low census and all the nurses on the same shift and unit who can be placed on low census have received 200 hours or more of low census in that calendar year, mandatory low census shall be assigned according to the current system of rotation on the unit, except that nurses who have received low census in excess of 200 hours in any calendar year may pick up any available incentive shifts prior to regular or Per Diem nurses, on a first-come, first-serve basis until the end of that calendar year.
