If you miss a shift, which resource would you review?

• A. Previous shift reports
• B. Weekly newsletter
• C. Co-Sup
• D. Connect2

Answer: (A)

When you miss a shift, you need to quickly understand what happened and what needs your attention. The previous shift reports are the primary resource because they capture the day’s activities, tasks completed, ongoing work orders, equipment status, and any issues or safety concerns. Reading them gives you a clear snapshot of what occurred, who was on duty, what priorities were set, and what follow-up is required. This lets you pick up where the team left off, plan your tasks for the new shift, and anticipate any potential problems. A weekly newsletter provides general updates rather than shift-specific details, and a quick briefing from a co-supervisor can help, but those sources don’t replace the precise, shift-by-shift information found in the written reports. Connect2 may contain tickets or announcements, but the most reliable way to catch up is to review the previous shift reports.
