My ward is taking on computerised rostering for the off-duty. Many part time staff are clearly worried as previously, they had set days (with some flexibility for the ward) to cope with childcare arrangements. Now it would seem that these previous working arrangements will not be necessarily be met by the computer and the staff with childcare issues will have to 'like it or lump it'. There has been mention that if these staff members can't be flexible then they should look to going on the 'bank'. This all seems totally opposite to the so-called family-friendly mantra and the government's aim of enabling people to work! If you have any valid advice or heart-warming tales, then I shall be truly grateful to you!
