I think it totally depends on the hospital as to what it means. Some places it's a float pool. Others you can even float between hospitals. I am in a labor pool spot right now and it literally only means that I am prn in my dept. I don't float anywhere, I am last to be scheduled, but I don't have to take call or give availability or anything. I think it's a rather unusual use of the term labor pool, but my point is that it could mean any number of things.

Hi everyone,
I currently work full time and I'm looking for two part time jobs to give me flexibility with school. I got a call back for a position that was listed as part time or pool. The voicemail states it's a labor pool position only. When I called back they were out of office.
I'm curious- what exactly is a labor pool? Is it like a list of substitute teachers at a school or something different?
Thanks in advance.
