I’m a therapist at an inpatient facility. I have been told NUMEROUS times by my direct boss that since I’m salaried and exempt there is no “off time” for me. Yesterday I worked a 12 hour shift when I was only supposed to be there for 10. He does this constantly. I’m not paid on call, he constantly contacts me on my days off. I told him if I stayed over to complete a task that was almost missed due to our EMR system that I would leave early the following day, and if the client was denied by insurance for not having the intake done in time, it would be my fault. I didn’t have to say anything and could have ignored it. I was encouraged to 1.) not take any breaks and 2.) told I had to work the full shift regardless. I’m only hired for 40 hrs/ week. He has also asked me to cover another program we run on Sundays. Cool, I love the other program and it gives me a break from the shit show on the weekends. But when there is no coverage to ensure all intakes are done he has said I either have to stay over, or it’s my responsibility to find coverage
