Recognition of Experience. Claim for recent related clinical experience, if any, shall be made in writing by the nurse at the time of hiring on the application for employment form or otherwise.

Having established the recent related clinical experience, the Home will credit a new nurse with one (1) annual service increment for every year of experience. If a period of more than three (3) years has elapsed since the nurse has occupied a full-time or part-time nursing position, then the number of increments to be paid, if any, shall be at the discretion of the Home, provided that such discretion shall be exercised in a reasonable manner. This provision shall apply to nurses currently employed by the Home effective the date of the award and shall not involve any retroactivity.
