Weekday shifts typically commence between 10:00am and 12:00pm, with working hours running through to the appropriate finish time based on operational requirements.

Where additional hours are worked on a particular day, time can be balanced by starting later or finishing earlier on another day, or otherwise adjusted within the same week.
