One week of six (6) night shifts (1900-0100) may be scheduled quarterly. Any changes in the schedule shall be coordinated between the HCW and the Government. Work hours can be flexible so that if work requirements are greater than forty (40) hours in a given week, they will be adjusted to ensure performance of no more than one hundred ten hours (110) hours in a two-week period/pay-cycle per FTE. In no instance will each HCW work more than the hours provided in the SLIN description of the task order.

Clinical cases on call include all organ systems and types/modalities of radiological studies, including nuclear medicine and neuroradiology cases. On-call services begin at the end of the scheduled night shift and shall continue until commencement of the following day (0730 hours).
