Our company, 21 is the longest you can work.
I worked 7/7 when I lived 2 miles from the heliport. 2 to 3 people on the platform. Not bad.
I now work 14/14, 4.5 hours from the heliport. 150 people. I wouldn't do this at 7/7.
There are advantages to each. But you don't want to drive all day to get home and all night to get to work on a 7/7 schedule. You will run twice the miles on your vehicle on a 7/7 schedule.
14 days off is great. 14 days working sucks.
I work 7 nights, then 7 days. Th schedule sux. I'd rather work 14 straight days or nights.
