User:The Watcher141/Paramount/Duty Roster

From Bravo Fleet

The USS Paramount operates on a four-shift duty rotation, with each shift lasting six hours. Crewmembers spend one shift at their duty station and remain on-call for the shift immediately following that one, with the remaining two shifts reserved for sleep, exercise, and recreation. Crew members assigned to day shift rotations typically work six days in a row with one day off. Crew members assigned to night shift rotations work five days in a row with two days off. For continuity of care reasons, physicians and nurses work double shifts and four days in a row with one day on-call and two days off.

  • Alpha Shift - 0600 Hours—1200 Hours
  • Beta Shift - 1200 Hours—1800 Hours
  • Gamma Shift - 1800 Hours—2400 Hours
  • Delta Shift - 2400 Hours—0600 Hours

  1. The Command Duty Officer (CDO) has delegated command of the ship and handles concerns not rising to the level of the commanding officer, who is always on duty. Unlike other duty stations, the CDO is always a two-shift assignment. The CDO will hold the bridge as Officer of the Watch for the first shift of their rotation and remain on stand-by for the second.
  2. The Officer of the Watch is the individual in minute-to-minute command of the bridge in place of the Captain, This role would often be filled by someone on the senior staff whether a department head or a deputy. Department heads regularly take bridge watches, usually three times a month to ensure they keep up with their bridge command training. If the executive officer or commanding officer takes the bridge, the officer of the watch remains at the first officer station.

Similar to the way the bridge is staffed, the Engineering Duty Officer is the senior engineer on duty during a particular period. For Alpha and Beta shifts, this is the Chief Engineer herself, and then the two deputies rotate during Gamma and Delta shifts. Main Engineering and Secondary Engineering (in the saucer) also have a shift engineer in command for each shift.
