If they provided more part time jobs (not 0.1s or 0.8s, actual 50% time gigs), there’d be way more nurses and way less need for OT. From what I understand, it is the union not listening to its workers on this one.

Is this the case? Honest question because I have heard the issue is the opposite. There are so many part time positions that it is making it unattractive to new nurses because it is difficult to find an actual FT position. Anecdotally my niece graduated last year from nursing and has not been successful in finding a FT position. Temporary contract work and working several position to make up enough hours for full time pay has been her career so far.
