Two jobs, two separate obligations
Working as an RBT at more than one organization is common. A clinic three days a week, a school district contract two days, or a per-diem shift picked up on weekends. What is far less commonly understood is that this splits your supervision requirement in two rather than spreading it across both.
Your monthly supervision is met separately at each organization. It cannot be pooled, averaged, or carried from one employer to another. A month that looks healthy in total can still fall short at one of the two sites, and if you are tracking a single combined number you will not see it.
What “per organization” actually means
Run the arithmetic and it becomes obvious why totals mislead.
Suppose you provide service hours at two workplaces this month, and your supervisor at the first is diligent while the second has been short-staffed. Add both together and your overall supervision percentage clears the minimum comfortably. Split them and the first site is well covered while the second is under. The combined figure is not a compliant month with a small blemish. It is one compliant month and one that is not, and the healthy site does nothing to fix the other.
The same is true of the contact and observation requirements. Each organization needs its own real-time contacts, and the observation of you providing services to a client has to happen at the site whose month it is counting toward. A supervisor at one workplace observing you at that workplace does not satisfy anything at the other.
The exact monthly figures live on the RBT supervision requirements page rather than here, so there is one sourced place for them.
Why the rule is built this way
It can feel bureaucratic until you look at what supervision is for. Supervision is not a quota you fill. It is oversight of your practice with specific clients at a specific place, provided by someone responsible for that work.
Your supervisor at one clinic has no visibility into your caseload at another. They cannot observe those sessions, cannot review that data, and are not responsible for those clients. Letting their oversight count toward the other workplace would mean claiming supervision of work nobody supervised.
Seen that way, the rule is not administrative friction. It is the entire point. Every place you practice needs someone actually watching.
The requirement people miss entirely
There is a second layer, and it catches people who have already understood the first.
You need a supervisor or coordinator for every client you work with. Not most of them, and not enough of them to cover a percentage. You cannot have supervision arranged for three clients and then pick up a fourth who sits outside that arrangement.
This matters most in exactly the situation this article is about, because taking on extra work at a second site is usually how an uncovered client appears. The shift gets added before the supervision arrangement catches up.
Worth being straight about a limitation here: ABA Fieldwork Tracker validates your monthly totals per organization, not per client. The per-client requirement is real and it is yours to manage. No monthly percentage will surface it for you, in this app or any other.
A month with no service hours at a site
One piece of good news that removes a common worry. If you provided no behavior-analytic service hours at an organization in a calendar month, no supervision is required there that month.
This is the per-diem situation. If you did not work a shift at the second site in February, February is simply not a month that needs supervision at the second site. It is not a failed month. It is a rest month, and your record should show it as one rather than as a gap you have to explain later.
This also means a month can be a rest month at one workplace and a full month at another, simultaneously. Another reason a single combined figure cannot represent your situation.
Tracking two workplaces without tracking twice
Practically, the requirement is that every session carries the organization it happened at, and every check runs at that level.
In ABA Fieldwork Tracker you add each workplace on the Organizations page, and every entry is tied to one. Your dashboard then evaluates each organization’s month on its own: its service hours, its supervision percentage, its contacts, its observation. You can view all sites together or one at a time, but the checks themselves are always per organization, because that is how the requirement is written.
The practical effect is that a short month at your second site surfaces in week two, while there is still time to arrange a contact, rather than in a review months later.
Your monthly supervision records follow the same structure: one per month, per workplace, signed by you and the supervisor responsible for that site. That is also what makes them defensible, because each record is attested by the person who actually did the overseeing.
If you work at more than one site
Four things worth confirming this week. Every organization you work at is recorded separately, not merged into one entry. Every client you see has a supervisor or coordinator responsible for them. Every site has its own supervisor arrangement rather than one person you assume covers everything. And your months are being evaluated per site rather than in aggregate.
If you have been tracking one combined number, it is worth splitting your recent months apart and checking each site separately. Most people who do this find one workplace they assumed was fine. The RBT overview covers how monthly tracking works across workplaces.
