We need a new holiday policy for our night shift! Currently, we have a rotating schedule where you are either "on" or "off" the different holidays of the year. If you are schedule to be "on" a holiday, you are required to sign up for the 12-hr shift on the EVE of the holiday. If you are "off" the holiday, you are required to sign up for the 12-hr shift on the actual day of the holiday! Notice how you never really get a holiday off with this system? My manager is willing to change the policy if I can submit some proposals to her in writing. Before I submit my own ideas I would really like to know how the holiday rotation works at other facilities for the NIGHT SHIFT staff. How do you schedule holidays so that there is adequate coverage and so the rotation is fair for all the staff? Please be specific as to how it works so I can make my proposals. THANK YOU! :)
