PER DIEM Question

Hi! I have a question for all you who work Per Diem in LTC. Do you get shift differential when you work nights and weekends and time and a half during Holidays when you work Per Diem? Thanks.

    At my hospital they don't.

    Where I previously worked I did. Anything after 3pm during the weekdays I got shift dif and also for OT. I think that is a federal labor law, if you work more than 40 hrs they have to pay you OT. At least that is what I was told when I asked about it at that facility. I thought I didn't qualify for OT, but was told otherwise. Never worked holidays or weekends, so don't know about those times, but pretty sure I would have gotten the weekend shift dif, the holiday one I am not sure about.

    I worked per diem in hospital before they did pay differential. Now I work through staffing agency they don't.

    At my LTC facility, we don't get shift differential because we are hired at a higher rate of pay. We do get over time after 40 hours and are paid double time for Holidays we work.
