Over the next six months, BWH leadership will work with managers to implement a series of changes in payroll and time keeping measures. The changes will ensure that BWH and others in the Partners system have in place “best practices” consistently, across the Partners system.
The changes are the result of a number of lawsuits that have been filed against several health care organizations in Massachusetts and numerous other hospitals across the country, claiming violations of state and federal wage and hour laws. Partners HealthCare System and its affiliated organizations including BWH were included, as a small group of current and former employees filed a class action lawsuit last year. A tentative settlement was recently reached subject to final approval by the Court.
Information about the upcoming changes will be shared in the BWH Bulletin and on PikeNotes as it becomes available.
