Beyond the Job Description: When Extra Tasks Deserve a Raise in Veterinary Medicine


Listen Later

Veterinary professionals are often asked to take on extra responsibilities outside their original job descriptions. But when do these additional tasks justify a raise, a title change, or more recognition? In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, take a deep dive into this complex and sometimes controversial issue.
They discuss real-world scenarios where veterinary staff are expected to assemble furniture, manage inventory, or handle client callbacks—duties that may not align with their clinical roles. Should these added tasks be considered part of the job, or do they warrant compensation adjustments?
The hosts explore how veterinary teams can advocate for fair pay, navigate difficult conversations with management, and ensure their contributions are recognized.
This insightful discussion is a must-listen for veterinarians, vet techs, practice managers, and anyone working in a veterinary practice looking to create a fair and motivated workplace.
Tune in now and share this episode with your colleagues—because every veterinary professional deserves to be valued!
