• Pre-planned PTO and Vacation does not impact any employee's ability to sign up for an extra shift bonus contract; The contract will be extended by the number of days the employee(s) have taken off.

• If the number of employees requesting bonus contracts exceeds the number of bonus contracts available, seniority will be used to determine which employees are to be given contracts.

All nurses are eligible, but you must meet competency and expectations of the department while meeting your units needs first. For example: An ICU nurse may sign up for an agreement within the ED that they are deemed competent to work in.
