it varies from Dept. to dept. but baiscly a tour is defined as the time you work.
My Dept's tour is a 5/6 schedule...5 days on with a day off in between then 6 days off for a total of 15 days
for instance tomorow is the last day of my tour. so Thursday will be the start of my "6day" then I'll go back to work NEXT wed. Fri. Sun. Tues. Thurs. then 6 days off again!
and this can be changed to suit the Department.
it could be a 1/2 (work mon. get Tues wed. off, and go back Thurs. and this is also a TRUE 3 platoon schedule)
a 3/4 (work mon.wed. fri. get sat. sun. mon. tue. off) heres a calender of a 3/4 http://www.cherryhillfirefighters.co...alander(1).pdf
its a tough job....but someones gotta do it!
