2027 holidays: who's on duty
Day shifts run 7 am to 7 pm and night shifts 7 pm to 7 am. A shift counts on the day it starts, so "Off at 7 am" means a night crew finishing the shift from the evening before.

Weeks with more than 40 scheduled hours
Pitman's two-week cycle is 84 scheduled hours: a 36-hour week, then a 48-hour week. Counting Sunday-to-Saturday weeks, here is how many 2027 weeks have more than 40 scheduled hours, and how many scheduled hours fall above 40 in those weeks.
- Long weekend off Jan 1–3: day crew 26 weeks above 40 scheduled hours (208 scheduled hours above 40 in total); night crew 104 scheduled hours above 40, because the Saturday night shift is split across two Sunday-to-Saturday weeks.
- Long weekend off Jan 8–10: day crew 26 weeks above 40 scheduled hours (208 scheduled hours above 40 in total); night crew 104 scheduled hours above 40, because the Saturday night shift is split across two Sunday-to-Saturday weeks.
These figures show scheduled hours above 40 within a Sunday-to-Saturday week. They do not determine whether your employer owes overtime. Overtime rules vary by employer, occupation, work period, contract, and applicable law.

Frequently asked questions
How many weekends off does a Pitman schedule give in 2027?
Every other weekend is a 3-day weekend (Friday to Sunday). In 2027, the Jan 1 group gets 27 of them and the Jan 8 group gets 26, counting the weekends that start in 2027. Night crews get the same weekends: their last shift before a long weekend ends Friday at 7 am.
Who works Christmas 2027 on a Pitman schedule?
Christmas Day 2027 is a Saturday. The Jan 8 group has the whole Christmas weekend off (Friday Dec 24 to Sunday Dec 26). The Jan 1 group works Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Who works Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July in 2027?
Thanksgiving (Thursday, November 25): the Jan 8 group. Independence Day (Sunday, July 4): the Jan 8 group. The Jan 1 group has July 4th off. Every 2027 holiday is in the table above.
How many hours a week is a Pitman schedule in 2027?
84 scheduled hours every two weeks: one 36-hour week and one 48-hour week, about 42 hours a week on average. Counting Sunday-to-Saturday weeks, day crews have 26 weeks in 2027 with more than 40 scheduled hours (208 scheduled hours above 40); night crews have fewer hours above 40 (104), because the Saturday night shift is split between two weeks. These are schedule calculations, not a determination of payable overtime: overtime rules vary by employer, occupation, work period, contract and applicable law. The shift pay calculator can estimate pay with your own rules.
How do I know which group I am in?
Check one of your weekends. If your 3-day weekend off is Jan 1–3, 2027, you're in the Jan 1 group; if it's Jan 8–10, you're in the Jan 8 group. Your crew letter doesn't matter, because employers assign letters differently. If your schedule's long break isn't Friday to Sunday, set a date you know in the calendar instead.
Does my Pitman schedule change in 2027?
No. The 14-day cycle just keeps going across New Year, so your weekends keep alternating. Your last long weekend off in 2026 tells you your group: Dec 18, 2026 for the Jan 1 group, Dec 25, 2026 for the Jan 8 group. What changes is which holidays you work, because holidays move to different weekdays each year.
Can I print or add my 2027 Pitman calendar to my phone?
Yes. Tap "Show my 2027 calendar" for your group (days or nights), then use Print (the year layout fits 2027 on one page) or "Add to calendar" for Google, Apple or Outlook calendar. Everything stays on your device.
Dates assume a classic Pitman (fixed days or fixed nights, 12-hour shifts from 7:00) with the 3-day break on Friday to Sunday. Rotating day/night versions are on the Panama and 2-2-3 pages. Confirm your official schedule with your employer.
