At my hospital it’s just luck of the draw. If you get the night shift in the spring, you work an hour less while being paid the same and in the autumn you’re working an (unpaid) extra hour.

The craziest thing was when my girlfriend had a patient die of non-natural causes during that night. In these cases, police have to be notified so they can investigate whether there was any wrongdoing. The police arrived a few minutes before the time of death of the patient, because in the meantime the clocks had been moved back an hour. Apparently they had also never had that situation before, so they were unsure how to document it correctly.

Our 12hr shift folks did 13 hours last night. Anything over 12 in one shift is double time pay, so there’s that.

Typically, your shift is just an hour longer/shorter. Though, I’ve worked for companies that tried to scam me, and pay me for 8 hours on the night with 9 hours, under the guise that they would pay me 8 hours on the night with 7. Nope. I don’t trust your ass, and I don’t know that I’ll still be working here in 6 months. I’ll take my $8.75 for tonight, tyvm.

I used to work at a transplant coordinator, and you had to account for every minute of time an organ was on ice. There were a lot of extra notes for those nights, because while the software for charts was automatic, the doctors would look at in and do the math wrong.

I also worked through a leap second New Years Eve, but we didn’t really need to do anything with that.

Work extra in fall. In spring it’s up to how your supervisor wants you to do it.

I had to work overnight during a clock change.

All I had to do was log 10 hours, so it didn’t really matter.

Yup Lemme tell you, adding an extra hour onto what was already a 13hr shift on hospital wards, for no extra pay, was roooouuugh

For me it was working the extra hour/one hour less without touching my Overtime.

As a doctor, we would work and hour more or less depending on the shift changed. Im paid a supplement to work out of hours rather than by the hour, so we’d just suck it up of working an extra hour and be happy if we worked less.

If you’re paid hourly then you’d be paid for the time you worked.

But shift starts and finishes were unchanged, it was just the length that got altered.

Yes, that’s how we do it. Employees on 8 hour restrictions go after 8 hours though

When I worked on a ship, we coordinated with the other 12-hour shift so both of us got 30 minutes of the offending hour.

Depends on the laws of the country you’re in and the quality of the company you work for. But usually you work more for free, or you work the normal amount anyway.

At my work the people on shift either leave an hour early (when clocks go forward shift ends at 7am and leave at 7am for example) or they leave early (shift ends at 7am but you leave at 6am after being there a full 12 hours) depending on which way the time goes.

suffer.

Whatever your boss tells you I guess
