As a Weekend Laboratory Technician, you can expect a steady workload focused on running routine tests, processing samples, and maintaining lab equipment. While weekend shifts may have fewer staff on-site, you will likely collaborate closely with other technicians, nurses, or on-call supervisors to ensure timely and accurate results.

To thrive as a Weekend Laboratory Technician, you need a solid background in laboratory sciences, attention to detail, and typically an associate’s or bachelor’s degree in a related field. Familiarity with laboratory instruments, data entry systems, and adherence to safety protocols are crucial, and certifications like ASCP can be advantageous. Strong organizational skills, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication help you manage workload and collaborate during limited weekend staffing. These skills ensure accurate test results, maintain lab safety, and support efficient operations during off-peak hours.

Today, our comprehensive system of health includes more than 300 primary, urgent, pediatric and specialty care locations across Washington, Idaho and Oregon, as well as 12 hospitals. We welcome patients from the entire Pacific Northwest region and our 20,000-plus team members — including employees, providers and volunteers — proudly care for the communities we serve.
