Common use of Short Call Assignment Clause in Contracts

Short Call Assignment. Short call assignment is defined as confirmation of a specific shift assignment in a time frame proximal (e.g., two hours before the shift) to the shift. The Per Diem Nurse will provide a written list of times she/he is available to work shifts which are not preassigned, but short call. A list of available nurses, or 'short call' list, will be kept by staffing personnel and seniority will prevail for such 'short call' assignment. The Per Diem Nurse must be immediately available to confirm the assignment or she/he will be bypassed for that assignment.
