Common use of Paramedic Certification Clause in Contracts

Paramedic Certification. As paramedic certification is a condition of employment, the Employer agrees to pay for the initial paramedic training. All hours involved in gaining initial certification shall be paid at the employee’s normal hourly rate. Once the employee has received such training and fails to receive such certification, the employee has eighteen (18) months to obtain certification at the employee’s own expense (i.e. no wages shall be paid for training nor shall the Employer pay for tuition and supplies). If the employee does not obtain certification within the eighteen (18) months after failure of initial training, such employee shall be subject to termination.
