    Believe it or not, this is clearly spelled out by my employer. 2 minutes leeway after start of shift is allowed. So if I were to clock in at 0702, I’m good. If I clock in at 0703 I’m late....

    New OR Nurse struggling, should I move on?

    Rose_Queen replied to SafetyNurse1968's topic in General Nursing
