CRITICAL SHIFT BONUS
Due to the unprecedented challenges resulting from the current surge in cases from the COVID-19 pandemic, both parties agree to a temporary increase in the critical shift bonus amounts in Side Letter of Agreement (3) of your contract as outlined below:
SIDE LETTER OF AGREEMENT (3)
(Pages 57-58 of your Union Contract)
Once a particular shift has been designated as critical, the Employer will offer bonuses to employees who agree to pick-up additional hours on that shift (i.e. not those working their regular schedule) based upon the following:

a. An increase from $50 to $90 for working a minimum of 4 hours.
b. An increase from $100 to $150 for working 8 hours.

Once a critical shift has been identified, any nurse who agrees or previously agreed to pick-up additional hours on that shift and works those hours will receive the critical shift bonus.
BEGINNING JANUARY 27, 2022, THE ADJUSTMENT WILL BE IN PLACE FOR 30 DAYS.
