NOPE!!! I was told that my PTO would transfer over (grandfathered they said). I was getting 10.5 hours every 2 weeks and soon as I transferred over to this company, BAM.....4 hours that that was it. THEY LIE!! Watch out.
I thought in training I was told that it started accruing immediately (full time/full benefits), but looking back through my pay stubs, I didn't start accruing it until after I had been with the Q over 5 months.
I've been looking on MQCentral, but I can't seem to find the answer. I would love to know if they owe me back PTO...which would help a lot since I sit here for the third day in a row with no work!
Thanks! ...
Does it go by the hours you are scheduled or the hours you actually worked. I was thinking about how I was short on hours last month and wondered if I still earned the same amount of PTO. Anyone know? ...
"Accrual rate of 0.02 per production hour."
I guess I am stupid but I don't know what this means. 0.02 what? hours?
Also, does it say anywhere, like on our paystub, how much vacation time we have accrued to date?
TIA! ...

Is this correct? right-hand-dominant male
One of my doctors uses this phrase all the time and this is always the way I have typed it. I just want to know if I am typing it correctly, and if it is not correct what is the correct way to type it?
My thanks to anyone who answers ...
I work at a hospital that will shortly transition over to Health Management Associates. I have seen on their website they outsource all transcription work to Transcend. Right now all transcriptionists will be staying put but probably the first of year that will not be the case - can someone tell me anything about this company? Line rate, ease of making good counts, etc. Thanks. ...

Here's the text: Examination of the right hand reveals a long jagged laceration extending from the palmar surface into the web space. It is roughly 4.5 cm in length. It is full thickness and when the fingers are spread apart, the volar surface of the 1st phalange can be visualized through the wound. Volar? I'm not sure if that's what I'm hearing...it sounds like it starts with a b, like bowler or buller. I know what volar is, but does it fi ...

I have worked in orthopedics and there is a possible opportunity for a hand surgeon. Where can I find references or just common terminology for surgical notes that focus on the hands. I have stedman's references for surgery and orthopedics, but I was hoping there was some kind of guide for transcriptionist of hand surgeons. I know there are so many references out there, but whenever I google I am getting such a broad spectrum and nothing that seems to really be w ...

that all those running out of work will be forced to work all hours of the day and night now to maintain health benefits. This is probably their way of filling up graveyard shifts that they've previously been unable to fill.
Can you just picture the looks on their faces when they come up with these devious plans. ...
I am a new MT and have only been working a couple of weeks but loving it! I was just wondering if any of you seasoned MTs out there remembered having hand and wrist pain when you first started? With the increased amount of typing that I have been doing all day long every day, I find that my hands and wrists hurt when I am doing other things. I am not talking about being sore, which I expected until I get use to all the typing, but actual stabs of pain when I move them certain w ...
I am in college right now for transcription, and am just getting in to using the SUM program... I start summer semester on Monday and am disabled with no use of my legs, I use the Phillips USB hand control in place of a foot pedal. Well SUM doesn't work with it... I tried downloading the audio files to my computer and then importing them in to Express Scribe, which DOES work with my hand control, and I guess the permissions on the files won't allow ES to open the files.
Is there A ...
