Thanks.
Is it the same for all units?
I assume the times for say Gatwick are early shift is 5.30-1400, afternoon 1400 - 2130 and nights are 2130-0530?
trying to work out how it effects my daily routine with the family!
Each unit is different. I'm not familiar with KK, but i think your assumption is wrong.
At one london airport the shifts are:
Morning 07:00-13:30 (though there are early start variations from 06:00)
Afternoon 13:30-22:00 (again there are various shifts allocated each month by roster - late start/finish for example 15:00-23.30)
Night 22:00-07:00
The individual work practise agreements at each unit may have a collection of other shifts such as day shifts to maximise flexibility.
