salford: Penalty rates here are like shift work. For example a nurse who does afternoon shift earns more per hours than the one who did the morning shift. The one who did night shift will earn more than the Pm an Am. It is also called shift loading. Working weekends is another good pay entirely. I am just curious at what the % loading is for each shift aside from morning shift ofcourse 1 Like 1 Share |

WellEndowed:i understand now. She does get extra for overtime. Nothing for others though. for nurses in AHS I just remembered now that nurses on night shift with alberta health services make an extra 5 CAD per hour for night shift. Regular wage on weekends. Overtimes and hols are 2.5. 1 Like |

salford: So say the nurse earns 21.55 base hourly rate, they earn same on weekend? |

WellEndowed:As far as i know with health jobs in canada. weekends make no difference. you only get premiums on night shifts, overtimes and holidays. |

salford: My sister in-law was planning on working in the US for a year and then back here but she cancelled the plan because what she would earn in the US was low compared to what she already gets here. There was also this American Nurse I know from California who told me he got no shift loading for weekends and was paid base rate (don't know how true this is). That was why I questioned the guy that said the US pay better. |

WellEndowed:Lets wait for his reply. i can only google for US to obtain info about wages... The only info i get for the US are word of mouth from health care professionals here in Canada. It was also in the news recently about canadian nurses stopped from entering the US due to some of trump's policy. i believe it has been resolved now but it was really big news here in Canada. You would see canadian health care professionals moving south but not the other way round. If the nurses had not been allowed into the US. they would be unemployed in canada due to the fact that we dont have such things as nurse practitioners and nurse anesthetists. The healthcare system in canada is over regulated. http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/canada/windsor/canadian-nurses-working-in-us-rejected-1.4026554 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/03/16/trump-visa-canadian-nurses/99288212/ |

http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/canada/windsor/nursing-students-us-election-1.3843923 Canadian nursing students hoping they would see a new US president by the time they grad. Doctors and nurses try to move south after grad just as i previously mentioned. Usually better wages and more career specialization/opportunities.

WellEndowed: i just asked my flatmate. She said that there are actually NP in canada but it is highly regulated and very difficult designation to obtain.. She said out of close to 300,000 nurses in canada..just about 4,000 have the designation. i just checked indeed.ca for NP jobs. There are a few vacanacies (41 or all over canada), and they actually offering good coins atleast for canadian standard.. If i was a nurse in canada, i would probably be aspiring to get the NP designation. |

salford: NP is a ridiculously high paying job. There are paid on the same level as a GP(doctor/General practitioner). They get to see their own patient load to diagnose and treat. It is however a challenge to get in. No be beans and if you make mistake and go work in a very remote location, some are looking at about $200k 2 Likes |
