Hi everyone. I have been working in rural acute care for 3 1/2 years in Alberta We have had such horrible management the whole time. We are constantly short. Unsafe working conditions. I wish I could go into details but it would be a novel. Recently our boss is taking this mandating staff to work to an extreme. I hate going to work in that most likely I will not be allowed to leave due to staffing shortages. Last night I came into work and was told that I had to stay till 11 in the morning or come back at seven(mandated). Can he do that?? Mandating from a night to a day shift is really hard to do. It was such a chaotic night and I could not function in the morning. He also said it had to be and LPN that stayed and not and RN because we are cheaper to pay overtime and said he would refuse to pay and RN to stay. My question. I can't find anywhere in my contract that says I can be mandated to stay for overtime. It always says on agreement between employer and employee. RN's do have a place where it says they can be mandated. Is my boss overstepping his place or do I need to keep sucking it up and hating my job?
