The new rules were introduced when the automated swap system went live. As JA said in a wash-up I was at "be careful for what you wish for" meaning the swap site would be up and running but the rules built in would reduce your ability to swap what we could in the past.
Apparently these rules were introduced to reduce fatigue but the company can roster you without applying them when it suits them.
Later when I asked about getting the list of Rules published I was told "I could find them out on my own as swaps were rejected" .
Thanks you EK, very helpful indeed.
I find them mostly crazy and very very annoying. I can organise my own roster and my own rest without the "help" of these morons in the office who would not know anything about my job.
Do any of them in there hold any kind of degree or have any relevant experience in ULR operations in a modern environment? I seriously doubt it especially the decision maker………………..sorry decision makers.
By the way I'm always tired. 92 hrs a month have anything to do with it??
