Off the clock

Just an informal survey. What would you do if you knew one of your co workers was punching out, then coming back and doing her charting, all to avoid "getting in trouble" for too much overtime ?

I know she is doing this. I know that my boss knows she is doing this.

I work in a rehab unit night shift. 30 beds,2 nurses,12 hr shifts.

I brought this up to my unit manager-she told me "don't worry about it."

What would you do?

I did bring it to management's attention. I was told "Don't worry about it." So.....I don't worry about it. Shame on management and shame on the nurse if something happens. I can't worry about what every one else does. I need to worry about me, and am I doing my job as well as I should.

This is illegal to be expected to work off the clock. There are times that the shift is horrendous and we need to stay. The manager needs to do a intervention with this nurse looking at her time management. I have worked with nurses like this as well as manage them and their biggest problem is they are unable to budget their time and believe they are responsible for every task that needs to be done is completed on their shift. It's why it's 24 hour care.
