How to Improve Shift/Rota Patterns and Shiftwork Practices? Working unusual hours, or some form of shift work, have been necessary to meet a part of many business expectations around the world for a long time. In fact as far back as ancient Rome, traffic congestion was lessened by ensuring deliveries were restricted to the night time hours. In today’s world, estimates vary, but approximately one quarter of the work force is involved in shift work. However, it has also been suggested that the many and varied schedules we work are not always the “best” ones both in terms of health of the workers and with respect to the impact upon business. We offer you the opportunity to experience what activities are involved and how DNV and our new partner Circadian Technologies Ltd. can help you to define the necessary changes you have to make to ensure your organisation’s daily operation will improve. During a two-day leading-edge seminar (October 30th and 31st) for 24-hour Operations Circadian Technologies, Ltd. will provide you with information how to improve shift/rota patterns and shift work practices within your organisation. At this seminar you will learn how to: > Determine the best shift pattern for your operation > Expand successfully from 5 to 7 day working > Avoid the costly pitfalls of Shift/ROTA changes > Reduce plant costs, risks and liabilities > Improve employee health, safety, and quality of life…and more > Optimise the 24-hour workforce > Evaluate the real pros and cons of 8- vs. 12-hour shifts > Align manpower requirements with variable production demand Who should attend? > Corporate Executives > Plant Managers > Labour Representatives > Human Resource Professionals > Employee Relations Managers > Operations Managers > Health and Safety Officers > Shift Supervisors > Shift work Task Team Members > Medical Directors & OHN’s > Industrial Hygiene Managers You can download the information package about this seminar below.
