You are always bound by your service rules. The Standing Orders normally will have an order that every employee shall follow the timings fixed by the departmental heads as mentioned in the roster or as published in the notice board. Therefore, if the manager/ VP or whoever has directed you to report to night duty, you have to follow it. It will not even make any change in the service conditions also. A 48 hours notice is sufficient to change your shift timing.

If your nature of work requires you to perform your work in shift basis & if your employment rules provides so, you are required to obey the change in shift. Not accepting may amount to disobediance of order which would attract disciplinary action.

There is provision in ID Act that the tradition may not be changes suddenly without taking employees or their representative into confidence.You may raise complaint with the local labor commissioner in writing. Before that you may consult your other colleagues and try to know what are their views so that you may get their support. Night shift poses health hazard. It disrupts melatonin secretion in the body. There are studies which say it increases possibility of cancer. You may visit the website of International Agency for Research on Cancer -IARC:IARC - INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER

Dear All,
First of all there is little what we can do about the duty timings. It's depends on your service conditions issued to an employee at the time of joining duty. Most employer mentions '....timings as prescribed by the competent authority from time to time' etc. So I don't think one will have any option about it unless one has the bargaining power and the person involved is inevitable for the employer. May be he may try through medical grounds to avoid continuous night shift. If it is going tobe rotation he can't refuse.

If you do not want to switch to nightmshift, and your company requires you to, giving you no option, then you should seriously be looking for a new job. There are no shortage of jobs for experienced people in your line of work.
