Which statement accurately describes the timing of the shift selection window?

• A. It begins on the third Monday at 1500 hours and ends 48 hours later
• B. It begins on the first Monday at 0900 hours
• C. It begins on the second Wednesday at 1300 hours
• D. It begins on the last day of the month at 1700 hours

Answer: (A)

Timing of the shift selection window is fixed: it opens on the third Monday at 1500 hours and stays open for 48 hours. Because the duration is 48 hours, the window ends 48 hours after it begins—so it closes on the Wednesday at 1500 hours. This two-day span gives everyone the same amount of time to submit preferences, preserving fairness. The other options don’t fit because they propose different start times or durations that don’t match the specified 48-hour window starting on the third Monday at 1500 hours.
