What reading level is The Twelve Hour Shift in Industry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Out of an engine company of twelve men, four would always be off. Of the other eight, one or two would perhaps be off for a meal, leaving six or seven at the fire stations. In adopting the two-platoon system it was only necessary to increase an engine crew of twelve to fourteen to insure seven men always being present.
Under the two-platoon system the day shift is usually shorter than the night shift. In New York the day men serve nine hours and the night men fifteen hours. In some other cities... there is not so great a difference in the length of the shifts.
Some fire departments are run on a system of twenty-four hours on and twenty-four hours off. This is sometimes popu- lar with the men, as it enables them to work elsewhere during their twenty-four hours off.
Cleveland for a time operated on a three-platoon system. In April, 1921, it changed back to two platoons, under a sys- tem of twenty-four hours on and twenty-four hours off.
Watchmen.
Watchmen, as a rule, are on twelve-hour shifts.
