Has anyone heard of this schedule before, 24 on 24 off ?

Henrico County, VA (Richmond) does similar.

Henrico County, VA (Richmond) does similar.

Not exactly. Henrico works a 56 hour work schedule (average). I find it hard to follow. They work 24 on 24 off for 3 rounds, then they get and additional 24 off. Then 2 rounds with an additional 24 off, Then I think it goes back to the start.

Not all Federal Firefighters work 72 hours a week 24 off 24 on 24 off......and on and on

Some work 56 & not all work 1 on 1 off. Some work 48 on 72 off or set day's

At West Point you have set Days you work.

There's variants of 24 on 24 off here in Texas. Houston does 24 on 24 off 24 on 5 days off.

Other dept's in the area do three 24's with 4 off....depends where you're at.
