I'm not sure, but when I was doing residency, it always seemed that I was on call or working in the ER in the fall (so I had to work an extra hour) and had the day off in the spring when we went back to EDT.

The night shift has to cover the hour with paid time in the spring and they get an hour of overtime in the fall.

Hospital shift work is this way in my experience: one less paid hour in spring, one extra paid hour in fall, but only when you happen to work those shifts.

If you are part of a union then most likely you cannot be paid for less than 8 hours of work, so with DST you get paid for an extra hour, and then in the fall you get paid for 9 hours.

I worked non-union major factory and we always got 8 hours pay for the 7 hour midnight to 8am shift. Going the other way, we got 1 hour over time for the shift in the fall.

When I was in the Navy when we adjusted clocks in the middle of the night the watch on duty just sucked up an extra hour going West and got a short watch going East. The watches were staggered across 3 or 4 teams or sections who covered 5 or 7 watches a day so nobody "always" got a long or short watch.

I was in the Pacific so short watches were a sign we were headed home.

One of my sisters' boyfriend works a weekend shift and they change the clock between shifts rather than at 2.
