One Response to “Emergency Physician Sidesteps Poor U.S. Maternity Leave Practices by Negotiating Her Own”
August 27, 2017
Dara KassThanks Dr. Hoper for an extensive review of the lack of maternity OR paternity support for EM Docs. I would love to know more about the outcome of your negotiation with your community ED director and what that person was thinking when they offered you the “increased signing bonus and six weeks of paid maternity leave.” I would also love to know if they altered the package for others behind you or was it a one time deal?
Please email me at darakass@feminem.org if you get a chance and congrats on the new job.
