I heard the most ridiculous thing. Has anyone ever heard of someone getting disciplined by having their hourly pay reduced?
The person I believe has only had one verbal warning for what I would take as a minor infraction( not any nurse errors) but was told then they might have their pay reduced. person's been there for over 5 years.
At my facility we're not eligible for merit-based increases or our bonus if we're in corrective action. Haven't heard of the other but that's not to say it wouldn't happen.
Not if you have a union. You dang well better have your disciplinary ducks in a row to even consider withholding a bonus. Not possible to reduce pay you are already entitled to by years of service.
