PRN positions: Acronym stands for Latin word, "pro re nata," which translates to "as the situation demands." Staff in PRN positions work on an "as needed basis." PRN positions are budgeted positions tied to a specific unit. However, PRN positions are considered "temporary employment." Consistent with other temporary positions, staff members in PRN positions are eligible to voluntarily participate in the supplemental 3 retirement program after completion of 1000 hours of work, and are viewed in the same way as Clinical Staffing Resource Center or VTS staff members. No other benefits are available to PRN staff. In addition, a PRN staff member does not have access to either performance improvement counseling or the dispute resolution process. (However, they may utilize the Opportunity Development Center (ODC) for issues concerning a claim of discrimination or retaliation.)
