Yes, I am told that call counts as hours worked. I will stick it out but if it starts to be weekly I will need to seek other options. I appreciate the input.
Thanks Ned, per my recruiter I will be paid my on call when I'm on call and my contracted pay when I work or when the hospital calls me off for over 3 shifts. The issue that comes up is being told on call is not being called off so the hospital will never have me reach the 3 shift maximum. Thank you for your quick reply.
Ok so I'm somewhat new to travel nursing and I have a question. I just recently signed a new contract. Upon arrival the census in my unit was 1 and now it's 0. Union law states that the travel nurse is called off before staff. Now I have guaranteed hours but if they place me on call it's considered me getting my hours even if I only earn a few dollars. This is my second day and my first I was placed on call and today I was not only due to the staff nurse wanting off. Is there something that can be done or do I stick this contract out making $40 a day.
