# One transport plan for all three shifts A unit that works three shifts has six transport moments a day: three arrivals and three departures, and one or two of them in the middle of the night. Shiv Shakti Tours & Travels builds one plan that covers every shift change at your unit near the SMG plant, with the vehicles sized to each shift's headcount. - Three shifts, six runs - Night runs included - Sized per shift | Runs a day | Up to six: in and out per shift | | --- | --- | | Vehicle size | Per shift headcount | | Night runs | +20% if starting 10 PM–6 AM | | Changes | By your cut-off time | | Overlap | Drop of one shift, pickup of the next | | Billing | Monthly package, GST invoice | The plan is priced as a monthly package; the night runs are priced into it. - **Branch**: Hansalpur Circle, next to the SMG plant - **Hours**: Open 24/7, every day - **Rates**: ₹12 · ₹13 · ₹18 per km - **Minimum fare**: From ₹1,000 a booking - **Billing**: GST invoice · monthly for companies - **Tracking**: GPS on every car ## How do you plan transport for a unit with three shifts? Shiv Shakti Tours & Travels plans each shift change as its own run: the outgoing shift is dropped and the incoming shift picked up, often by the same vehicles. Vehicles are sized to each shift's headcount, runs starting between 10 PM and 6 AM carry the 20% night charge, and the whole plan is one monthly package with a GST invoice. - **6**: Runs a day at most - **1**: Plan and invoice - **+20%**: Night runs only - **Cut-off**: For roster changes The efficient part of a three-shift plan is the overlap. The vehicle that brings the incoming shift to the gate takes the outgoing shift home, so one vehicle does two jobs at each change. That only works if the shift times leave enough room for the drive, so we look at your timings and the towns before proposing vehicles. Headcounts are rarely equal across shifts: the general and first shifts are usually the largest, the night shift the smallest. We size each run separately, so you are not paying for a bus at 2 AM to carry five people. ## Which of your shift changes fall in the night window? Enter your three shift-change times; the diamonds show which runs carry the night charge. Example times only. Enter your own; nothing is sent anywhere. ## What does a three-shift run sheet look like? An example for a unit with 30, 20 and 8 staff on its three shifts. | Run | Staff | Vehicle | Night charge | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Shift 1 in | 30 | Bus or two Tempo Travellers | If before 6 AM | | Shift 1 out / Shift 2 in | 30 out, 20 in | Same vehicles, both directions | No | | Shift 2 out / Shift 3 in | 20 out, 8 in | Tempo Traveller and one Ertiga | If after 10 PM | | Shift 3 out | 8 | Ertiga and a sedan | If before 6 AM | Illustrative headcounts. Tempo Traveller and bus rates are quoted on call. ## How is a three-shift plan set up? From your shift chart to the first run. - **Share the shift chart.** Timings and headcount per shift. - **Share where staff live.** Towns and pickup points, kept confidential. - **Get the run sheet.** Vehicles per run and the monthly price. - **Agree the rules.** Cut-off time, backup plan, night drop rules. - **Start and review.** First month reviewed from the GPS trip records. ## Shift transport questions From HR and plant admin. ### Do you know the SMG plant's shift timings? We plan to the timings you give us; every unit sets its own, and they change, so we do not assume them. ### Can one vehicle drop one shift and pick up the next? Yes, when the timings allow, which keeps the number of vehicles down. ### What about general-shift office staff? They can share the first-shift runs or get their own run; tell us their timings. ### How are shift changes and overtime handled? Through the cut-off time you set; late changes are handled as single trips if a car is free. ## Related pages - [Daily staff up-down](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/becharaji-plants/daily-staff-transport.html): Fixed routes for staff, every working day. - [Night-shift drops](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/becharaji-plants/night-shift-drop.html): Safe drops after late shifts, any hour. - [Sunday and holiday transport](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/becharaji-plants/sunday-holiday-transport.html): Staff transport on working Sundays and holidays. - [Tempo Traveller and bus](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/becharaji-plants/tempo-traveller-bus.html): Our own larger vehicles for groups and shifts. **Short general answers in our [Knowledge Hub](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/answers/)** - [Do you provide early-morning pickup services for factory employees?](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/answers/employee-transport/early-morning-pickups-for-factory-staff/) - [Can you arrange transportation for employees working in three shifts?](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/answers/employee-transport/three-shift-transport/) - [Do you provide transportation for employees working in rotating shifts?](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/answers/employee-transport/rotating-shifts/) - [Can you accommodate changes in employee shift timings?](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/answers/employee-transport/changes-in-shift-timings-and-pickup-points/) **Written by [Vaibhaviba Bhavsinh Solanki](https://www.shivshaktitoursandtravels.in/author/vaibhaviba-bhavsinh-solanki.html)**, owner of Shiv Shakti Tours & Travels: GST and MSME registered, 8+ years in business, with our branch at Hansalpur Circle next to the SMG plant and an Ahmedabad office in Ghatlodiya.
