What shift coverage means

Shift coverage is short-term cover when a plant is a person down — annual leave, a sudden absence, a maintenance window that needs staffing, or a peak period the roster cannot quite cover. CIC provides controls-literate support for agreed day, afternoon, night and weekend shifts across Sydney and NSW.

The difference from generic shift cover is capability: support that is genuinely useful on PLCs, drives, panels and instrumentation, working under your induction, permit and isolation procedures. CIC agrees each shift's scope and schedule before the work starts.

What we cover

  • Day, afternoon and night shift cover
  • Annual leave and long service leave cover
