Pay
Award pay by state
Why this matters. Public-hospital ordinary hours are set in a state agreement, and the states do not use the same dollar. The figure is the published base for the grade you pick. Overtime is why two people on the same base take home different pay.
Ordinary full-time hours, from the state agreement for the grade you pick. The base fills in from that grade. You can change the number. Overtime is not included.
