Notes:

It is a rotating 17 week schedule. Every 17 weeks the schedule order resets. Some weeks are 4, 12 hour days. The other half of the 17 week schedule is a 3, 12 hour day work week. So either 4 days or 3 days (48 hour week or 36 hour week). Over the year it averages where employees work on average 38-39 hours a week. It is not like a typical 9 to 5 Monday through Friday. Max days worked is 4 days and minimum 3 days (unless someone wants to pick up overtime or cover a shift). Days off are majority 3 days off but some are 4 days off between your work weeks. Since the schedule is always moving, some weeks will have no weekends but half of the weeks will require weekend work. Holidays are included to work if the schedule happens to fall on that day in that week. Their team is 24 hours a day 7 days a week team (but their employees do not work 24/7 - they have a day and night shift) They have 4 days on 4 days off, or 4 days on 3 days off, or 3 days on 4days off, or 3 days on and 3 days off etc. Every 4 months or so there is even a long 8 days off in between scheduled days (or about 3 times in a year). It is always changing. MAKE SURE EVERYONE KNOWS THERE IS SOME WEEKEND AND HOLIDAY WORK.
