Do you charge extra for nights?

No. NE Scotland shift-cover is standard and we don't load the rate. That's a common surprise on quotes from national providers.

Can one instructor really cover 24 hours in Stonehaven?

Not 24 straight — but a Mon-Fri week can cover early, day, twilight and late-night cohorts to a single standard.

What about weekend cover?

Yes — Saturday and Sunday cohorts are booked frequently, no premium.

Do handover crews get the same paperwork?

Yes — one certificate format, one PDF pack. The only difference is the timestamp on the assessment.

How do you make sure night-shift learning transfers?

A short handover toolbox at each shift change, driven off the same slide pack. That's usually the missing piece.

The situation on the ground in Stonehaven

The single biggest reason refresher cycles slip in a 24/7 operation is that daytime cohorts don't fit. Night-shift crews miss out, then land audit findings that daytime crews avoid — even though the underlying competence is often the same.

How we deliver it

We rotate one instructor across your shifts within the same week. Same paperwork format, same certification body, same standard applied at 3am as at 3pm. Toolbox debrief runs at handover, so night-crew learning transfers to day-crew straight away.
