A decision on the shift change handoff should be judged at the furnace board at Blackslag Row, where the rule changes an ordinary route, shift or service. Keep contract terms, meter readings and worker testimony beside one another. The current file is the Year second, smelt run window 1 review, not a permanent settlement of every future case.

The the assignment board and the outgoing crew’s condition notes lists 73 handoffs with a signed condition note before the next bell; the previous window lists 76. Grikka Ash checked both against crew logs compared with the inspection card for the same shift. The difference matters because how the next crew can verify a machine condition after the board changes hands.

Supervisors count a completed handoff when the board is signed. Workers want the condition note to travel with it. Those objections deserve a clear answer. They are not a reason to keep an uncheckable rule simply because its wording is familiar.

A useful decision names who will do the work, which count will change and when the result comes back to the public table. In this case, the outgoing shift sometimes leaves after the incoming crew takes the board.

The Year second, smelt run window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The board will test a two-signature handoff with a separate condition line.
