No OT 12 hour shifts?

Published

I am trying to find a 12 hour shift template that will allow me to schedule my staff 24/7/365, with no built in overtime. I had seen an awesome schedule at some point which had no overtime and allowed the staff 7 days off in a row each month. However, I can't seem to find this schedule now.

Does anybody have a template they use for 12 hour shifts and no overtime? Please share if you will :idea:

Straight 12's don't work for us.

We do have a number of people working 2-8's & 2-12's per week.

Or you could do 3-12, which would have them working 72 hours per pay period, still FT at our organization

I don't know if you would be willing to give this a shot or not but give it a thought. When I worked on a telemetry unit, the nurse manager put out a blank schedule. She said "You know how many weekends you have to work." We filled in our own days, everybody was happy, and all the days got covered.
