I am trying (with little success) to change the current shifts we work in my dept.
A late shift currently finishes at 22.00, and if i work an early shift the next day i start at 07.00, giving me a nine hour break in between.
Is this legal? If not, what infor do i need to make my claim.
Any advice/help would be usefull.
thank you

The only point of discussion is if these types of shift patterns were made clear to you when you took the job in the first place.
under the EWTD, junior docs can work 16 hour shifts, but then have to have 13 hours off
if your shift is less than this, then it probably complies

Hope that helps.
that why i have no juniors
It doesnt apply to consultants though
if some of the girls find it more conveneient to do 3 long days because of childcare, then the hours on the feet argument might snooker them
