Work out your own numbers

The figures above follow from the day counts in the definition. For your own numbers — a different shift length, a different number of weeks — use the rotation hours planner, the shift hours calculator, or the hours in a year calculator.

This page states a rotation definition and the arithmetic that follows from it. It carries no figure from a public record, and no claim about who works the pattern, what an agreement calls it, or how any law treats it.
