Who it's for

A city officer, a deputy and a trooper do not work the same week. The rotations are different, court works differently, the off-duty market is different and the miles are wildly different. These pages cover how BlueShifts fits each one.

BlueShifts. Plan Your Year. Own Your Time.

The shift calendar built for your rotation, off-duty work, and life on and off the clock.

Set it up once for the way your own week runs.

Municipal police

City and town departments

City departments run the widest mix of rotations in policing, and they carry the busiest off-duty market. Here is how BlueShifts fits a municipal officer's week.

Sheriff's office

Patrol, jail, court and transport

A deputy's week can cover patrol, the jail, a courtroom and a transport run across the state — often in the same pay period. Here is how BlueShifts handles that.

State trooper

Highway patrol and state police

Troop rotations run longer than city watches, the miles are longer, and court can be in a different county each week. Here is how BlueShifts fits that.

Federal

Agents, investigators and uniformed officers

Federal work splits two ways — investigators whose days run long and unscheduled, and uniformed officers on a bid rotation with premiums layered on top. BlueShifts handles both, differently.

Corrections officers

Federal, state and county

Corrections runs the hardest rotations in the business and the most mandatory overtime. Keeping your own record of it is the only way to know what your year actually looked like.

Campus police

University and college departments

A campus department polices a small city that empties out twice a year. The rotation may be steady, but the work either side of it is not — and that is what makes the calendar worth keeping.

Transit police

Rail, bus and subway systems

A transit officer polices a line, not a beat. The rotation is built around when the system runs and when it is full — and the paperwork follows you across every jurisdiction the track passes through.

Park rangers and conservation officers

Rangers, game wardens and conservation officers

Conservation work does not run on a tidy rotation. It runs on seasons, on call-outs, and on distances no city officer would recognize — which is exactly why the record matters.

Airport police

Airport authority and aviation departments

An airport never closes, and its busiest days are printed on a calendar a year in advance. That makes it one of the easier places to plan around — if the rotation is written down.

Hospital police

Medical center police and public safety

A medical center runs at full tilt at four in the morning on a public holiday. The rotation reflects that, and so does everything it collides with.

Probation and parole

Community supervision officers

Community supervision does not run on a watch rotation, which is exactly why the month is harder to hold in your head. It runs on court dates, field days, on-call weeks and a lot of driving.
