Sifting through the thousands of available work schedules leaves many managers lost as to what is the best shift schedule. After all, there is no one-size-fits-all schedule that works for all organizations. In this white paper, we outline best practices for finding the best shift schedule for your 8-HOUR VS. 12-HOUR SHIFT SCHEDULES The simple answer is: There’s no simple answer. Extensive scientific research on the effects of 8- and 12-hour shifts has produced no clear winner. Both 12s and 8s work wonderfully for some facilities while causing problems for others.

MICROSLEEPS: 30 SECONDS TO CATASTROPHE A microsleep is a brief sleep episode that lasts up to 30 seconds, during which a person temporarily loses consciousness and external stimuli aren’t perceived. 2. Microsleeps are most commonly associated with sleep deprivation and driving; however, microsleeps can also occur in the absence of sleep deprivation when completingmonotonous

FACT: The operation will still operate for the same number of hours per week and workers will still be working those hours – even though the number of hours may fluctuate week to week. This is why staffing levels typically remain unchanged when converting from 8- to 12-hour shifts. SHIFTWORK ADVICE: HOW TO MANAGE STRESS WHEN WORKING THE The good news is that stress, especially holiday stress, is manageable. Here are some simple and practical techniques for reducing stress that can fit into anybody’s schedule: • Make an appointment to spend time with yourself. Setting aside even just 10 minutes a MANAGING 24/7: Q&A: WHEN SHOULD MEETINGS FOR SHIFTWORKERS While it seems like a simple solution, holding over night shift workers for a meeting after their shift ends, from 7 to 8 a.m. isn’t a great choice. It seems convenient, especially for managers who work days and only need to arrive at work an hour or two early.

5 NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF HIGH OVERTIME LEVELS Excessive overtime can also result in morale problems, which can be manifested as low productivity, absenteeism, turnover and labor issues. In Circadian’s Shiftwork Practices 2004, 31% of shift work companies with very high overtime levels (more than 10 hours per employee per week) had poor morale. Conversely, only 13% of companieswith
