:sad: No--no 'trials 'ever! After a few weeks, they become the norm, and you will get no machines.This happened in our office 3 years ago! Don't isten to their 'we will trial it for 12 weeks and if if doesn't we will revert back to normal. '
it's a con .

Depends if the new shift patterns are acceptable/advantageous to you.
If so then why not "trial" them.
If not - why bother?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
