I know you guys work a 4/2 or 5/2 5/3, but is there any talk of switching over to another kind of schedule? Will it ever happen in our lifetime? lol

The 5/2 5/3 is the normal patrol schedule. If you have steady days off, then it's 5/2 each week and you accumulate chart days. The unions have been trying to get a better schedule but the job has been resisting it. I know there was a pilot program in the Lieutenant's contract for longer tours and less appearances.

Thanks for the reply. I know a lot of departments are shifting to a pitman type schedule, just wondering if NYPD was trying to do the same. When you say the job do you mean the city or the bosses? I don't see why there would be resistance, many city departments have moved away from the standard 8hr shift.

Originally posted by nasa808 View PostPitman type schedules for whatever reason never work in large cities. For the most part, every large city works the crappy 5/2,5/3 or some funky version of it. Baltimore PD has one of the worst schedules I have seen in awhile 6 on 2 off / 6 on 3 off. I would hang myself!The Few, The Proud, The Marines...

Like previously said you are either in a squad (5/2 5/3) or have two steady days off (same amount of hours, but every two weeks you bank that extra day). It depends on where you go which you'll get. The squad is nice cause every other month you have weekends off, if you have steady days you won't have any weekends. But on the flip side those banked days are real nice because we have so little vacation (10 days a year).
