nScope

nSleep Center Department

nPolicy:

nThe Extended Weekend Option Program (EWOP) is a premium-staffing program that provides additional compensation to Sleep Technicians in the Sleep Center Department who commit to working full-time bedside positions during defined weekend shifts.

nProcedure:

nnnThe EWOP program provides a differential for Sleep Technicians who agree to work a designated weekend schedule.

n

nnEmployees must sign a weekend commitment form and agree to meet all criteria for participation in the EWOP program.

n

nnEmployees must work a minimum of three designated weekend shifts per week, or 2 weekend shifts plus 1 weekday shift per week.

n

nnFor purposes of this policy, weekend shifts are defined as 10-hour shifts starting at 7:30 p. m. on Friday and ending at 6:00 a.m. on Monday. Participants may schedule themselves for any two or three shifts during this time frame with the approval of the Department Director.

n

nnWeekend shifts will receive a $4.00 per hour differential for all full 10-hour weekend shifts worked. Employees working less than their full weekend shift will not receive the weekend differential for that shift. The additional differential ends upon completion of the 10-hour shift and the participant goes back to base rate plus applicable differentials unless requested to stay longer by the Director or designee.

n

nnWeekday shifts are paid at the employee’s base rate plus applicable differentials.

n

nnEWOP participants may request ETO for up to 4 weekends per calendar year. This includes scheduled ETO as well as unscheduled ETO.

n

nnParticipants must have a minimum of 1 year of Sleep experience or specialty to be considered for participation in the EWOP program. Employees with active disciplinary records may not be considered for this program.

n

nnParticipants must remain employees in good standing to participate in the EWOP program.

n

nnEmployees may be removed from the program at the discretion of the Director if the employee receives a Written Counselling for any reason.

n

nnParticipants must meet all other scheduling criteria of the department.

n

nnHoliday scheduling takes priority over weekend scheduling. EWOP participants must share in the designated holiday staffing rotation even if the holiday falls on a non-weekend day. Conversely, EWOP employees are not required to work both weekend shifts if both holiday days occur during the weekend: Christmas Eve-Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve-New Year’s Day.
