Hope you can follow what I'm trying to explain here.
We have a new boss after 12 years. Area has ~ 20 people. Established schedules have been created to fit the departments needs, adding new people/hours who were all hired for specific hours/days and they all knew this going in.
With new boss there has come a push for change by a couple newer to department coworkers, 3 people. They were all hired for mid shift hours, then later chose to change when opening came up to work pm hours (end of this shift is 1030pm). Same coworkers are now pressing ''it's not fair!'' and 'we want day shift hours'. Our new boss thinks this is a good idea, so is pressing a couple of us to accept switching a few of our day hours to the pm shift. New boss did say whatever the majority want, but this only involves 3 who want days from what I can tell. We all have the hours we accepted/applied for.
If this happens it will be going back and forth with sometimes just 8 hours between pm to day shifts. I also heard the newest person hired to cover mid shift hours and hearing that person is now denying this was what they were hired for!! Heard HR only has offer of full time documented, old boss says HR should have it documented listing shift that person was hired for.
Is there any protection for those who have well established hours for years?? There is more to whole deal as there is also night and weekend call hours involved.
Thanks for any thoughts on dealing with this
