CNA Night Shift Legality PLEASE RESPOND

Hello,

I work 3 12 hour night shifts a week at a hospital. Consistently, we are required to attend meetings that occur during the day and then report to work that night.

For example, my manager scheduled me for a training class from 2:30-4pm. My shift starts at 6:45, and I live 30 min away which means I will not have time to go home to get a quick nap in.

I just feel this is completely unfair and unethical to make night shift employees constantly attend these meetings at ridiculous hours then go to work. A day shift person would NEVER have to go to a meeting at 2:30 am, so why should we?

Plus, it’s unfair and dangerous to the patients.

Who else thinks this is unethical?
