shift work
Which reason it looks for you credible for shift work,
-After 18 hours of work, the typical person's reaction times are similar to people with 0.05 ppm of alcohol. In addition, the risk increased (health, injuries less production etc)
-It also seems to me that there is increasing shift work offered in order to escape paying overtime rate to employees by using shift work and paying employees the regular hourly rate.
-Or both together
Dont know about shift work but so many times ended up working 15-16 hours a day.. never felt dopey or anything... trick is 2 enjoy ur work... if u look at it as a burden then 8 hrs a day will b tough too..
isn't that easy,but if you know how to manage those 12 hours with your colleagues the time will move faster.
This is true too if you're rolling out many activities at the same time,let's say "train trip" and "reclaimer start-up"....
Average shift hours is 12. I won't know about the achohol stuff unless you work with chemicals like Methanol or Benzene, the more you smell, the more high you gets. No need to drink beer.
Besides that citation is indeed needed, 0.05 ppm of alcohol looks like a nonsense. 0.05 ppm = 0.00005 per mile
Dude,it looks like you're on night shift and wondering about it right?
Some industries requires continuous monitoring,and thus shift duty is necessary.
(I have never heard about 18 hours shift,except in medical fields)
-0.05 ppm alcohol?Are you sure of the unit?
