We have been hearing from several nurses being called for a “Fact Finding Meeting” This is also known as an investigatory meeting. To be safe, please reach out. Your Officers and Nurse Rep is here for you!

What to do if you are called into a meeting?

First ask: “What is the purpose of this meeting?”

Then make the following statement: “If this meeting could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, or affect my working conditions, I respectfully request that my union representative be present at this meeting. Without representation present, I choose not to participate in this discussion."

I understand that there are many of you that may be afraid to make this bold statement to your manager; but these are your rights. If you have a gut feeling that the meeting you are going to attend seems unusual, please go with your gut feeling. Give one of your officers or the WSNA Rep a call and let’s talk.

To view your Weingarten Rights, flip your badge buddy over and read.
