The problem from a healthcare professional perspective is the discrepancy between staff pay and traveler pay. This has shown us what the market will hold in terms of wages. They could double staff nursing pay and still be paying 1/2 what they pay travelers. That is thrown in the face of people who have worked at some of these facilities for years, decades in many cases.
Not at all, I think instead of trying to lobby the legislature to enact laws that cap pay it’s the responsibility of the private organizations to stop pinching pennies and recognize the value of their clinical staff. I’ve never known any patient that has come to the hospital to get help from an MBA.
You talk all of that jazz, but what is actually happening on the ground is far different.
I don’t know how it got I enacted in other states, or even the details, but I know who is trying to push it through in my state. Maybe it’s simply because they hold the majority that they’ve been lobbied by HC organizations to push this through, but they are the ones bowing to it. The rep mentioned in that article has found co-sponsors from his party and is going to bring it to a vote. They are the ones pushing it, I’m just laying responsibility where it applies. I have no doubt democrats may have had a hand in instituting it in other states, and they were wrong if so.
They count as self employed correct? Still doing withholdings when calculating his take home?
