Title: Rotating Shift Schedules
Post by: SpringChinook on May 30, 2016, 09:27

What does your rotating shift schedule look like? How many weeks in duration is it? Is the Radiological dept the same as Operations? and if it isn't, what does the OP's schedule look like?
Also specify what nuclear power plant the schedule is for..(union plant or not...)

I know that there was a post like this sometime ago, but no one specified what nuke plant there schedules were for..
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated...
