Yeah you’re right, just make everyone work 12 hr and then have to stick around longer (possibly without being paid for it) if anyone is ever even just a couple of minutes late. Makes so much more sense.
Or, I don’t know, overlap them by 15 min? Who said it had to be an hour?
How much of a difference could there possibly be, regarding alleged patient harm, between 12hr and 10hr shifts?
You wouldn’t do 10h shifts, you would do 8h shifts or you would have daily drift in shifts and that’s horrible for workers.
As other people have written in this post, workers prefer 12 to 8 since there are less error and they get more vacation days.
Why? I’m literally asking why 10hr isn’t even a possibility, it’s all just 8 or 12 in here. Why wouldn’t I do 10hr shifts?
because it doesn’t add up to 24h. You propose two 10h shifts and one 4h shift? That sounds chaotic.
Overlap…?
double the nurses and doctors for 1h? Sounds like chaos idk.

quoting the orignal msg:
Did you selectively ignore the part where they said that they punch in and punch out and are paid those 15 mins???
10h paid shifts. to overlap them consistently you do 8h turns with 1h overlap on each. it’s the most logical way to overlap 10h shifts in my eyes idk…
In any case, if they are paid those 15 mins and workers aren’t pissed with the 12h15m shifts, why do you care so much?
