Whatapalava,
Do you have some more info from the Original Post that hasn't been published ?
I agree with all of those Reg's, but the OP doesn't actually say that any of them were breached,
the closest seems to have been asking one of the staff to work another shift without enough rest period,
but that was declined so no breach.
I can't see anything about a shift being changed to a Rest Day
( or a Rest Day being changed to a shift day which is what I think you meant ),
so perhaps we need a little more clarity from TheDog, or yourself about what's really going on up there :
"6 weeks without a weekend off" - They are getting rest Days during the week though aren't they ?
"Shifts are getting changed a to short notice due a lack of Observers"- But why ?
Looking at it from a Management persepctive, if it's to cover unforseen Sick leave,
then it's probably reasonable to call it an "exigence of duty".
"One guy came off Nights and was asked to work 8 hours later..."
Accepted he shouldn't have been asked, but he declined so no breach of Reg's. there.
"Another worked 7 Nights out of 10 duties" - This doesn't explain the full picture -
Was that 10 duties straight without a day off, of which 7 were Night shifts -
or were those 10 duties spread out over more than 10 days,
and could have inlcuded Rest Days breaking up the run of Night shifts ?
It will probably all settle down once all the new Recruits have been selected and trained
