That is our intent. We want the LPNs to feel comfortable. If LPNs are not comfortable with the orientation, they need to communicate with the supervising RN the need to stay longer or reschedule further orientation for another day. When a steward is representing a member during a PCR, they have a right to ask questions during the investigation process. They may ask questions, and a list is not necessary.
Past practice is to share a copy of the report with the steward and the employee.
When the investigator is assigned, the steward should be contacted so that they may attend all of the interviews. We agree this process should occur, and the investigator will try to do their job of interviewing with the steward. If relevance is questioned, then a rationale should be given. If there is a concern and after the interview, either the investigator or the steward would then discuss the issues. The union will advise Personnel as soon as possible who the steward is, and management will notify the union as soon as possible who the investigator is.
