Critically review policy for train control rosters with respect to allowable numbers of consecutive shifts and hours worked to ensure:

· mini rosters are controlled within defined criteria compatible with the principles used in compiling base rosters.
· defined criteria are met before offering additional shifts to train controllers.
· actual hours are monitored and immediate corrective action taken when factors increase rostered shifts beyond acceptable limits.
