Staffing Complaint Forms - ADOs (Assignment Despite Objection)

Did you know you can use an online ADO form to document any unsafe working condition? That includes: being understaffed to the matrix, inadequate support staff, workplace violence, missed breaks, not enough break nurses to cover breaks, being forced to use buddy breaks, equipment malfunction, lack of needed supplies and more. This form lets management and the union know that things are not okay.

Click on this link to document your situation. www.wsna.org/ado or scan this barcode.

ADO app

Report your staffing concerns in real time to your charge nurse or manager to give them an opportunity to correct the situation. If not corrected, fill out the ADO to document the issue.

Interested in Stepping up to become a Union Leader?

Your current officers are seeking members to help lead the team, either as an officer or a unit representative/steward. We need a strong foundation to inform and ignite our bargaining unit members. There are different roles; we'd like to help you find the right one for you.  Talk to one of the current officers or Nurse Representative. Training will be provided.

Document unsafe conditions

If you find yourself in a situation that you believe creates unsafe conditions for patients or for you, you should complete a Staffing Complaint / ADO Form as soon as possible.

By completing the form, you will help make the problem known to management, creating an opportunity for the problem to be addressed. Additionally, you will be documenting the facts, which may be helpful to you later if there is a negative outcome.

WSNA also uses your ADO forms to track the problems occurring in your facility. When you and your coworkers take the important step of filling out an ADO form, you are helping to identify whether there is a pattern of unsafe conditions for you or your patients at your facilities. This information is used by your conference committee, staffing committee, and WSNA labor staff to improve your working conditions.

Representation rights

As a union member, you have the right to have a representative present in any meetings with management that could potentially lead to disciplinary action against you.

If called into a meeting with management, read the following to management when the meeting begins:

If this discussion could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, I respectfully request that my union representative be present at this meeting. Without representation present, I choose not to participate in this discussion.

Find out more about this crucial right and how to exercise it to ensure your fair treatment and protection.
