I work in the healthcare system. For more than a year my department has mandated me and my co workers consistently every pay period more than 7x. We all have to get mandated at least three to four times in a row before we can only do one shift and go home. Once we get one day off of overtime the follow day you more than likely will be getting mandated in a row again. I’ve been on both sides of the field in healthcare as a manger and a union member. I couldn’t be more surprised and how this particular hospital can get away with the abuse to their employees. I see how myself and my fellow coworkers can barely stay up during shift. The morale in my department is so down everyone seem to want to quiet. I want to quiet lol but the benefits and pension is very important to us all for our family’s. I would love to get your feedback on this and what we all should consider doing about it. I know N.Y labor laws allow this kinda of employer to mandated as much as they want but something needs to be done. The abuse is real. A lot of us even get mandated at the end of shift with no notice of mandatory overtime at least an hr or two before the end of shift just not right.
