night duty--weekends

Published

when you work nights which nights are considered to be the week end?As permanent night workers we consider that Friday and Saturday night are the unsociable nights of the weekend but our manager considers that Saturday and Sunday are the weekend causing confusion in the off duty because everyone has to do two weekend shifts at least during the month and he considers that Sundays count while we say they should be Friday and Saturday.

What do your fascilities,hospitals,nursing homes etc do about this?
