24 hr shifts, rural EMS. Employer informed us that we are paid $26 CAD/hr for 18 hrs of the shift, with a rate of $14/hr for the remaining 6 hrs, as we typically sleep during that time (but can still get a call.) Seemed reasonable enough to me.
Well, after spending an hour breaking down our very complicated paystubs, I found that they are paying us $3.50/hr for 14 hours of our 24 hr shift, with 10 hrs regular rate.
Deductions are absolutely unreasonable too.
Funny enough, the 12 hr shifts only pay $3 less than the 24 hr shifts. But few stations offer 12hr shifts.
Contacted HR, confirmed that this is correct, and promptly found a better, lower stress job in the mountains with a 35% wage increase.
Screw em.
