ouch last week we got told that because of high work loads we need to have cover outside of office hours - starting with weekend work!
couple of suggestions are:
1. splitting up the 15 people team into 2 - such as tue-sat and sun-thurs
2. 4 days on (11 hours with 1 hour unpaid lunch) then 3 days off
I'm not happy about this at all but what kind of shift patterns can you all think of that will help alleviate this.
the week is monday to sunday - need to cover basically 40 hour working week with what we call 5 hours of unpaid lunch....
the reason why this has happened is because of a certain stupid individual that decided to spend 25 hours last to last weekend working on double time and really taking care of most of our work - the high management saw this and thought if he could do that on the weekend without interruption then maybe we should get em all to work weekend. - there's always one person who messes up the rest
anyway thoughts welcome cheers
