MTs in California - Question

had difficulty finding a job with an MTSO and suspect it is because you live in CA (they probably don't like the fair worker's laws we have here, ie, having to pay our benefit rate for OT, having to pay for NJA, etc). I'm addressing any MTs who have RECENTLY gotten hired by an MTSO AND live in CA. Not ones who live in CA (like me) who have had their jobs for over 3 years or so........ ...

Does anyone know if MQ has "cost of living adjustments" in different parts of the country or if everyone in the US makes about the same line rate range? We were thinking of moving to Ca from Texas.

I, too, live in California. I'm a level-3 MT, getting mostly ESLs and other difficult dictators. I've brought my QA percentage down from 22 to 20% but it's impossible for me to go any lower with what I'm being routed. It looks like our job description has changed dramatically. Because of these new changes imposed by corporate, I'll now be getting paid 3 cents less through no fault of my own, but a different job description, not what I was hired to ...

After 18+ years of transcribing, I am flat out of work. For the last 12 years I have worked for a small transcription company with multi-speciality clinics. So my previous hospital experience is not current. That seems to really be hurting.

If you are an employee working in California with an employer in another State you need to be aware of the State of California Labor Laws. I worked for a company in FL and worked overtime for several months. They did not want to pay me time and a half. I made a phone call to the Labor Department and had my back overtime pay and penalties paid within one week. I had the same come up when I was laid off last month. I waited to get my last check for two weeks and then remembered about the ...

find an MT job? I'm currently with a horrible company (you guessed it, starts with M)...and would like to try elsewhere, but I am worried that another MTSO won't hire MTs in California anymore because of their strict employee laws (which are fair to the employee but I'm sure employers don't like)...... So, any CA MTs out there who found a job fairly easily recently? Thanks in advance for any replies. ...

Don't want to give the name of the account, but my primary is a multispecialty clinic in CA... the rest of the docs moved to Epic some time ago, but the Ortho clinic stayed on. Haven't gotten any work from them in the past few days. Wondering if anyone knows if they finally made the switch, too? Would totally suck if that's the case, I always looked forward to those reports. ...

California is one of the few states that require paid breaks. The way Nuance ignores this is illegal. Does anyone have any experience with pushing this issue? ...

Nuance is required to pay for your 10-minute rest breaks separately and clearly display it on your pay stub. You are owed 1 hour of pay for every day PAID breaks are not provided going back 3 years. Their nonsense of stating breaks are figured into your line pay is illegal since when you log out to take a break, your production stops. Contact your local labor commission. ...
