The Juan F. Louis hospital has alerted employees that payday will be late this period. An all-staff memorandum was circulated on August 22. “It has come to our attention that there has been an issue with processing payments affecting all employees,” the notice said. The memo, issued by Interim CEO Hazel Philbert, was careful to note that the issue was not due to lack of funds, although it did not specify what was actually causing the delay in disbursement of wages. According to Ms. Philbert, the finance team is currently hard at work “to investigate and rectify the situation.”
