Salaried employees are often expected to work overtime with the justification that because they are salaried, they are not entitled to overtime pay. We explore how this practice affects actual hourly rates and how a culture of working overtime without compensation hurts all SLPs. Join us and learn from an SLP with nearly 3 decades of experience in the field.THANK YOU to our sponsors for this podcast: STEP Swallowing Training and Education Portal.Email us [email protected].

"We need a union!" is often one of the first rallying cries when SLPs get together to bemoan the pay problem in our field. But are unions the answer? Meet "Marie" who shares what it's like to work in a state largely dominated by unions that get SLPs "stuck on a teacher pay scale." We also discuss licensing gatekeeping and the fact that multiple state, interstate, and national licenses are perceived as required for this profession when other professions only require a state license.THANK YOU to our sponsors for this podcast: Phonological and Articulation Children's BooksEmail us [email protected].

SLPs are often employed by companies who do not understand the value that SLPs bring to the bottom line (not to mention to the humans that they serve). How do we ditch our imposter syndrome, know our worth, and communicate that worth clearly to our employers? How can this translate to better working relationships, more respect (for ourselves and from others), and better pay? Join "Julie" and Ingrid Desormes (host of The Miseducation of the SLP podcast) as we tease apart these questions.Link: Ingrid Desorme's podcast, The Miseducation of the SLPTHANK YOU to our sponsors for this podcast: The Entrepreneurial SLP and Pediatric Speech SisterEmail us [email protected].

There is an invisible force shaping our day-to-day jobs. It’s the force that is dictating 80%+ productivity requirements, mandated group therapy sessions, unethical billing, and reduced staff ratios. It’s the group of people who are actively working to extract as much profit as possible as fast as possible from healthcare facilities. It is known as private equity and it is hurting all SLPs. What is it, how is it affecting our jobs and our patients, and how can we stop it? These are all questions we explore with Matt Parr and Michael Fenne of the Private Equity Stakeholder project in this bonus "hot pockets" episode of Other SLPs' Pockets.Link: The Private Equity Stakeholder ProjectLink: Therapists for People Over ProfitEmail us [email protected].

If you're like our guest "June," and find a lot of meaning and purpose working at a top hospital, you may also find yourself in a position of accepting an hourly rate far below average. When multiple SLPs line up to work at a particular place, hiring managers know that there is someone in line behind you to take your position in a heartbeat. But is this how it has to be? Is it possible for employers to recognize the enormous financial costs that come with high turnover? Explore these issues and more on this episode of Other SLPs' Pockets.Email us [email protected].

Meet "Addison," an SLP who started out as an SLP-A and has navigated the complex world of being bilingual in a predominantly monolingual culture and profession. Is it possible to get paid a higher rate for the significantly higher workload that being a bilingual SLP requires? Even when a school district "doesn't have it in the budget" or bizarrely only sees the need for a single or small handful of bilingual SLPs for the entire school district? Yes it's possible, and Addison will tell you how.Email us [email protected]. Find us on Instagram @otherslpspockets.Share your thoughts and questions via voicemail!
