Holiday Pay Experiences (Tis the Season!)

Published

First, is your facility Union or non-Union?

What are the financial perks if you work holidays (i.e. 1.5 or 2 times base)? Do you receive a certain number of hours of holiday pay if you don't work? Do you receive those holiday hours in addition to premium pay if you *do* work? Are differentials still paid for evenings/weekends?

Lots of questions, I know. This is my first holiday season as a nurse and I'm just curious what peoples' experiences are!

Non-Union. Time and a half if physically working. Still get standard evening/night/weekend differential on top of holiday pay. Same with call back pay- time and a half for holiday plus another half for call back. If taking PTO, base pay rate.

2.5x if you work the holidays. Every full-time employee and part-time employee gets holiday pay regardless of working but if is prorated based on fte percentage. Differentials are still paid out.
