And at the end of the day, when your shift is over, you probably won't spend your night trying not to collapse under the pressure, because what you're doing, and the manner in which you're doing it, has the potential to shape the course of another human being's life. Shift Handover is one of the most important tools for operator situation awareness right from the beginning of a shift. Having a structured handover can eliminate human error, and operators forgetting to pass on ctitical information. It also allows the new operator starting work to more easily understand want went on in the previous shift and maybe prior shifts and what could potentially. 1 to move or cause to move from one place or position to another 2 tr to change for another or others 3 to change (gear) in a motor vehicle 4 intr (of a sound or set of sounds) to alter in a systematic way.

What Is Shiftwork?

The definition of shift work varies. In many cases, shift work is defined as work that takes place outside of ‘ordinary hours of work as defined in an award, registered agreement, or employment contract.

Many businesses rely on shift workers to keep things running seamlessly 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Some of the roles that may involve shift work include customer service and security.

Businesses that operate 24 hours a day require employees to work different shifts. Depending upon the operations of the business, shifts may be arranged in any number of different ways. Customarily, it is not uncommon to observe shifts being arranged as follows:

• morning shift
• night shift
• weekend shift

These schedules may be fixed (the employee is expected to work the same schedule each week) or variable (the employee is expected to work a rotating schedule of different shifts at different times of the day). They may also be required to be available to work upon request at any time of day (on-call).

The nature of the schedule – and what an award, agreement, or contract deems as ‘ordinary hours’ – may affect the type of penalties an employee receives.

What Are Shift Workers?

Shift workers have different annual leave entitlements to regular employees. According to Australian legislation, under the Fair Work Act 2009, an employee is considered to be a shift worker if they:

• work for a business where shifts are rostered 24-hours a day, seven days a week
• are regularly rostered to work those shifts
• regularly work Sundays and public holidays
• employees defined as a ‘shiftworker’ in the applicable Modern Award or Enterprise Agreement

So if you are an employer with workers under these arrangements, they are entitled to five weeks of annual leave.

Shift Penalties

Given the antisocial nature of shift work, many awards and agreements provide shift workers with an increased rate of pay. The increased rate of pay is frequently referred to as a penalty rate or shift loading.

Whether or not a penalty will be applied and how it will be applied depends on the modern award, enterprise agreement or contract of employment.

Depending on the nature of the work, employers may also need to include allowances to reimburse shift workers for additional expenses they have incurred during their employment – such as meals, travel, and accommodation.

They might also be required to give shift workers additional breaks, which might even be paid

It is also the employer’s responsibility to ensure that shift workers are paid the right amount, in accordance with the terms of the relevant award, registered agreement, or employment contract.

Night Shift Penalty Rates

Whether night shift workers are entitled to penalty rates depends on how a ‘night shift’ is defined in the award or agreement. Employers should refer to their respective award or registered agreement for clarity on night shift penalty rates. Some employees get paid a permanent night shift loading if they always work night shifts.

Overtime Rates

Overtime refers to work performed outside of ordinary hours. The spread of ordinary hours should be reflected in the respective award, registered agreement, or employment contracts. As the rate of pay for overtime may differ depending on when it is worked, the applicable rate should also be specified.

Full-time employees are typically considered to be working overtime if they work beyond 38 hours for the week. While this is conventionally the understanding of ‘overtime’, there may still be variations depending on the nature of the job and modern award, which may specify the maximum ordinary hours an employee can work per day and times within which the employee can work those ordinary hours, in which case any time worked outside those hours may be payable as overtime.

Some agreements may allow an employee to take paid time off, instead of receiving overtime pay. This is commonly known as ‘time off in lieu’. If employers opt for this approach, it needs to be established in writing with the employee’s consent and meet any award requirements.
