In Reply to: What does your company do for holiday pay?? - Missouri MT
I work as an IC and am not paid extra per line for working holidays, but the company does ask that you work a couple of holidays a year.

for MQ STAT employees tier rate applies to ME rate as well and how calcluated?
for a STAT MQ employee: Does anyone know if the tier rate is going to be applied to the ME rate as well or are they going to go with the 80% of the MT rate for each tier level? If the tier rate doesn't apply as well to the ME rate then going by the 80% of the MT rate is less than if the tier rate would be applied. I'm sure that MQ is going to go by whatever keeps money in their pockets. Guess this is a question for the supervisor tomorrow.
Their line rate was less than my current nat'l rate, even with mucho experience. nm

VR rate is 1/2 rate of traditional typing,I believe it is 4 cents line.
I took that to mean you can get to that rate after 1600 lines and that is not the starting rate.
:
Webmedx ASR rate is 70% of your regular line rate. sm
So if you are on a 9 cpl account, you get 6.3 CPL plus any bonus / incentives / shift differential.
From the current editing rate not typing rate

holiday pay
Do most companies provide holiday pay?
No holiday pay?
I do not work for Spheris, but that is the most selfish/ crasiest thing I have ever heard. I hope I don't sound like an idiot here, but is that even legal to have to work on a holiday without getting extra pay (apparently, it must be) ..but, I tell you what, I would be taking off every single holiday. I can understand if you were IC or SE or if they offered different incentives... but EMPLOYEE?
holiday pay
Does anyone who works for DRC/Acusis remember if there used to be paid holidays or has it always been just premium holiday pay? I've only been here since March, but I was under the impression when I hired on we had 8 paid holidays???
no holiday pay at DSG. nm

holiday pay
well, i'm not sure where people on here are getting their information. the new policy states you have to make your line quota 6 out of the last 8 pay periods and be employed there at least 6 months. it isn't that unreasonable
So what's their big holiday?
?
What holiday?
IC Holiday Pay?
If you are an IC, are you asked to work major holidays? How many do you work? Do you get a special line rate for working the big holidays? I wonder what the line rate is for holiday pay at most companies?
What's holiday pay?
Where I work as an IC, everyone who is normally scheduled for that day of the week is expected to work unless approved to take off in advance. Experience tells me that there is usually little to no work on the holidays, though.
holiday pay
i get time and a half - 13.5 cpl - 6 major holidays
holiday pay??
I get the same pay as always. I need to apply where you work.
Holiday Pay
You negative people just slay me. Did you not get the email from Management about there being FULL management and supervisory staff working the holidays? If they get paid for the holidays I'm sure they deserve every dime they do get. All you have to do (from my experience working the past several years with TT on holidays) is sign up to work the holiday and you will get paid lines and a half. There will be work, there always is. Now whether it's an account that will be your comfort zone will be another question. They can only give us the dictation the doctors dictate. They can't create something. I'm just really defensive when it comes to TT, they've been really good to me because I've been a good worker for them and plan on continuing as such.
Holiday Pay
I forgot to mention in my previous post...why don't you build up PTO like TT gives? Then you can take a holiday and get paid. Times are lean now and you have to make some sacrifices just as TT has to do I'm sure. Some people think that just because there is a company they are making dollars hand over fist. If I had a company that offered people to accumulate PTO why would I want to give them free money and pay them for doing absolutely nothing? Good luck in finding somewhere these days that will give out free money. Sounds like you're more interested in a handout.
Holiday Pay
I work for three services; at two I get $.03 per line extra and the third I get 15% extra of whatever lines I've done.
Holiday pay
Well work then. The BENEFIT is you work from home. You forfeit some benefits in exchange for others. Get over it. Guess you didn't mention they give you a Christmas gift though. How many MT companies do that for their HOME BASED MT's?
It's the holiday
With short work weeks, you'll likely hear from them next week. Good luck! Great place to work!
I just TAKE the holiday. If they don't like it,

Holiday pay
Don't blame you for being miffed. They say you only get holiday pay if you make your line rate. I don't know how many times I have been suckered into working a holiday and sat there all day for nothiong because I could not make rate with no work. Won't do it anymore unless I can get a guaranteed wage for sitting around waiting for work and totally ruining my time with my family.
Holiday pay
Your supervisor can approve holiday pay for you if you did not make your hours because of NSA - so take heart, you should get your holiday pay as long as you are putting in a ticket for your NSA once a day. That info is per one of the super's.
Holiday
It has been my experience that usually there is not much work on the holiday and if you check in a few times and if necessary type a few reports there is no problem.
holiday incentive pay
...is something I'd like to see
holiday question to R
Where did you see the must work 3 holidays thing-it is not in the handbook and nobody told me that.
OSI holiday pay and raises
I predict that the holiday bonus will last through Thanksgiving and Christmas, and then disapear like the work does overseas. No way are they gonna pay that ALL year....no way are they gonna pay raises either, cause no one will stay long enough to earn one!
How bad was the holiday slowdown?
just a day.. or a few days??
Holiday slow down?
Does it seem like the 4th of July holiday slowdown is starting already?
Holiday? What a joke...sm
Are there any companies out there that actually pay their MTs holiday pay? Amphion makes you use your hard-earned, very-slowly-accru, or is there better? Just doesn't seem right. I would think they could pry their wallets open a little bit wider in this respect.
No, you don't have to ask to work a holiday (sm)
I have the same problem with working past my usual quitting time (getting old, you know- LOL) I usually just send an email to Deb (or I guess to support) and say, I'm tired, will make up on weekend. Have never had a problem. Actually they are probably glad to have the help on the weekends. They are pretty flexible, especially when work is low. Don't hesitate to call them or email them for questions. I like it here too. 
MDI/FL/Transcend Rad Holiday
Does the MDI/FL/Transcend holiday bonus apply to radiology accounts as well? If so, since pay is per report, how is the bonus calculated?
Do you have to ask to work on a holiday...
when you are scheduled off?
Another question when out of work-do you have to keep working until your 8 hours are in once the work picks up or just make up that time later. I have a hard time working past a certain hour in the day and in the past, just made it up during the week/weekend. I don't want to get on the bad side of 'em. Love it here.
Holiday lull
I never had a lull, there was about 1/2 when had to wait for work, but other than that has been pretty steady.
No holiday. It's the end of the pay period sm
Nearly always low the Monday beginning the new pay period. Never fear, we'll be buried by Wednesday again.
Only if you actually work on the holiday
If you choose to work the holiday, you will get paid the extra cpl for the holiday, but if you choose not to work the holiday, you won't get it.
Yes mam, I will have a good holiday and you do the same.
Thanks.
Holiday Bonus?
I'm pretty new to Webmedx and am wondering if there is any holiday bonus. I'm probably crazy just having such thoughts but still hoping......anyone have any info?
Is everyone still out of work from the holiday?
I'm at Oracle and my account has been totally 100% out of work since Labor Day. I'm asking that they put me on a secondary but even if they do it tomorrow it'll be my smallest paycheck ever.
How's everyone else doing across the board?
Also I'm perfectly aware that its normal to be out of work after holidays, but tell that to my bills.
Thinking of getting out of the business..... :(
We were not slow at all over the holiday.

What does your company do for holiday pay??
I was just wanting to know how everyone is compensated for their holiday coverage. I work for a company that pays 25.00 an hour, on top your line rate for holiday coverage. I have another company I work for that pays 15% extra on your line rate. Are there others that offer similar compensation?
Any KS transcriptionist know about holiday pay.
I have to work Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years 
Holiday policy/pay is...
that you are scheduled to work the holiday if the holiday falls on your normally scheduled day, unless you have requested off previously and had it approved. You will receive holiday pay for that day.
transcend holiday pay
Does anyone know if Transcend Services pays extra to work the holidays???? Thanks:)
transcend holiday pay
Holiday pay is 3 cpl for typing and 1.5 cpl for editing
Holiday recognition, etc.
I work for SGS. They sent the same Christmas card they did last year, same picture, some greeting, etc. I can remember working for Edix and getting a cookie jar for Christmas and also QED sent me a cookie jar when I worked for them. I sure would have liked a cookie jar or something other than the same card as the year before, but what are you going to do. As a footnote, I work for SGS but am looking for another job. You can't make any money there. Right now they are upgrading to Version 8 of Escription and require the employees to buy all the upgrade materials, Word program, foot petal, etc. I think that totally stinks.
So why all the fanfare with every holiday about - sm
e-mails to get our time sheets in early - they don't pay until the very latest (hear of float?) I get my checks in the mail for now, and get it Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, whenever. But what really peeved me was that last spring the checks actually arrived on a Monday on 2 consecutive PP's - right after the latest hiring blitz - to make sure the little darlings got THEIR checks on the due date. 
Yes, you do have to work the holiday,
if it falls on one of your regularly-scheduled work days.
You do, however, get a 3 cents per line bonus for every line you type.
anyone get a holiday gift from Precyse?
Just wondering.
