    Hi, just wondering can anyone tell me what the exact shift pattern is in vistakon, I know it's a 12 hour 24/7 rotating shift but I'm looking to know how many days do ya have on and off and how many are days and nights.

    Thanks in advance.

    Your best bet is to camp outside with a big sign asking people what the shift patterns are. I'm sure someone will eventually tell you something

    I work at Vistakon so here is the shift pattern.Days, 12 hours, 07:20 to 19:30. Work tuesday and wednesday, off thursday and friday, work saturday,sunday,monday,off tuesday and wednesday,work thursday and friday, off saturday,sunday and monday. Repeat this and that is your month of days complete. Then a month of nights, same pattern.
    We work 14 shifts per month. It is easy to remember. If you work a day this week,you are off that day the following week. You work every second weekend but you have a long weekend off every second weekend.
    We have 19 shifts holiday per year.
    Hope this helps.
