Environmental Aide
Environmental Aide (Employé actuel) – Hamilton, ON – 10 juin 2019
A great place to work if you enjoy working in health care. Friendly staff for the most part. Busy atmosphere with Doctors and Nurses. Good opportunity to grow in my career.
Option of picking up extra shifts.
Call Agent (Criticall) and Switchboard (McMaster) (Ancien employé) – Hamilton, ON – 6 avril 2019
12 hour shift which ran 24 7. I learned patience in dealing with demanding clients. Learned how to take control of situations.
The hardest part was dealing with anxious clients in stressful emergent situations.
Very much enjoyed colleagues and as I was working part time had the option of picking up extra shifts if desired.

Good work place with some cons
Porter (Employé actuel) – Hamilton, ON – 20 mars 2019
As someone who was working a min wage job then coming to join Hamilton health sciences its like I struck gold
most jobs you start new in this company you start as on call, no garenteed hours.
Most jobs will start 22~23 an hour + 14% which puts you at 26 an hour. (the 14% is if you are on call)
The jobs will have you working hard for your money, jobs like porting, cleaning, delivering mail, doing trades in the hospital, plumbing, construction etc working in the kitchen
its a decent place for someone with no education and wants to make money and chill back
Now the cons
If you have a family and need hours this place might not be for you because like I mentioned before there's no garenteed hours you might be called in for 8 hours this week then 40 the next and no shifts for a whole week
The managers arnt the and people LOVE TO GOSSIP. People love drama there everyone knows each other and talks bad about each other,
I myself am porter I just deliver fresh towels and linen to wards and nursing stations and take the dirty linen down the basement, I transport patients to surgery and delivery equipment to where it needs to go
Overall I would prob rate this place 7/10 good money good hard decent work but the people at certain hospitals make it awful, they talk bad and they love gossip they call in last minute and play games, you know the usual politics at a place, People love to pretend they work hard when they dont and love to complain.

Have no repect for good hard working employees
Business Clerk (Ancien employé) – Hamilton, ON – 7 mars 2019
Worked for HHSC and was treated with disrespect for a good work record. Was told my HR file had no record of my sick time banked balance. They seem to get away with the way they treat long standing employees. Use them to train others then remove them from their position . Tried to put in a grievance and the union does not do anything for you. It is not a good place to work for. They seem to mess up your pay and takes forever to fix.
Poor management and workplace culture
Dietetic Assistant (Ancien employé) – Hamilton, ON – 6 février 2019
Poor workplace culture as they are very understaffed for the amount of work that needs to be done and patients deserve better care. Did not feel heard as an employee when bringing concerns to superiors. Complete disregard for availability when scheduling.
Great Job!

AutoCAD Student (Ancien employé) – Hamilton, ON – 9 janvier 2019
Learned many AutoCAD skills
Management is very nice and welcoming
Dealing with too many requests flustered us in the workspace
The most enjoyable part of the job is the people were the coworkers and how we helped one another.

A overall good workplace
BUSINESS CLERK (Employé actuel) – Hamilton, ON – 30 octobre 2018
Over the three years I have worked here, there have been ups and downs. There are clinics who have amazing staff who work as a team and then there are clinics and units with poor management. It depends where you go and who you work for/with. Overall, I recommend HHS as long as you don't expect quick advancement.

Environmental Aide/Porter
Environmental Aide, Porter (Ancien employé) – Hamilton, ON – 4 septembre 2018
The Hamilton Health Sciences is an excellent employer. Through terminal cleaning of hospital rooms, I gained experience utilizing chemicals and cleaning agents to disinfect all surfaces of the room so the next person to use the room would not become sick. I also gained experience portering patients and supplies through the corridors of the hospital in a safe and professional manor. When portering it is important to utilize the convex mirrors in the hallways to ensure you don't hit patrons or equipment while moving a stretcher or equipment. I also learned the importance of using proper body mechanics when transferring a patient from a hospital bed to a stretcher.
Points positifs
excellent experience
