When several contract medical professionals at a major West Coast health care center were informed they would be required — and not paid — to attend a six-hour OSHA safety course, plus a one-hour in-house course on email phishing, I heard about it from multiple people. Needless to say, they were not happy, so they complained to management.
But it gets worse. One of the people who reached out to me wrote that after the complaints, "The CFO announced, 'We figured a way around that. We'll just have our intermediary log on and take the test(s).' That's not only (deceptive), but identity theft! Dennis, can you imagine that?"
