Just wondering if you've noticed the activity on the AHS job board the last few days. Today, there are approximately 200 nursing positions active on the site. Two weeks prior to the budget, there were over 1000 positions, and then shrinking daily. Yet we are all working short.
Yes, I am aware the AHS Board is freezing positions and preparing to decrease the workforce through various means. However, I did not expect this many positions to disappear almost overnight.
Hopefully, someone will come to their senses. It's either feast or famine and to what end?
History repeats itself. Sigh. I'm shaking my head, as in, "Here we go again."
Perhaps the grand plan is to work everyone to the bone so we either quit or expire right on the job. This would save AHS millions.
Various posters inquire about moving to Alberta. Well unless you have a firm offer, do not move yet. Even with a job offer, beware....seniority rules. Last hired is first out when layoffs and restructuring occurs. AB will prosper again, but for the moment prospects are grim as far as the job market is concerned.
Do your research carefully and thoroughly before making important life changing decisions
