For those of you associated with projects executing around the clock - with two 12 hour shifts (or three 8 hour shifts), what is the SOP (standard operating procedure) for handling the night shift during clock adjustments on daylight savings?
Ie. when jumping forward an hour, does the night shift stay on for the full shift even though it carries them an hour into the next shift? Do you simply adjust the clock hours that the shifts begin/end?
How do you manage this in your schedules, or is it not significant enough to worry about? Any discrepancy will be accounted for after a progress update post clock adjustment, but prior to the event, I suppose it could skew critical path schedules by an hour.
