Nurses in Sardinian hospitals will be paid for midweek holidays.
«The commitment made by the NurSind of Cagliari, regarding the recognition of overtime payment for nurses' midweek holidays, is finally obtaining the desired results – explains Fabrizio Anedda, provincial secretary of the union -. In fact, the public health collective bargaining agreement provides that when a healthcare worker carries out his/her work and professional activity on a day coinciding with holidays, such as New Year's Eve, April 25th, May 1st, he or she is entitled to the payment of the overtime increase. holiday or holiday-night".
«The healthcare companies in Sardinia - he adds - had stopped these payments since January 2018, mistakenly believing that they were not due to shift nurses. However, the Court of Cagliari recognized this right for all nurses, condemning the various companies to pay the emoluments in question for the last 5 years for approximately 2500/3000 euros gross each".
