The 1400 hour, every quarter
What 1400 means on a shift
The 2-to-10 shift is 1400 to 2200, a standard 8-hour second shift. First-shift workers who started at 0600 are clocking out around now, which makes 1400 a common handover time. In offices it is mid-afternoon, the slot after lunch meetings.
The mistake people make with 1400
1400 reads as fourteen hundred and people who are new to it sometimes hear a date or a count. It is 2 PM. The arithmetic mistake is subtracting the wrong amount: 14 minus 12 is 2, not 4. Check against the first digit: any hour from 13 to 23 is afternoon or evening.
1400 is 2:00 PM, spoken fourteen hundred hours. Subtract twelve from 14 and you have 2, in the afternoon. It is the start of the second shift in a lot of manufacturing and healthcare, and the end of the first shift that began at 0600.
Worked examples
- 1400 to standard
- 14 minus 12 is 2, PM: 2:00 PM.
- 2:00 PM to military
- 2 plus 12 is 14: 1400, fourteen hundred hours.
- The 2-to-10 shift
- 1400 to 2200 is 8 hours. With a 30-minute unpaid meal break it is 7.5 paid hours unless the shift runs to 2230.
How it is calculated
1400 is 14 minus 12, which is 2 PM. 2 PM is 2 plus 12, which is 1400. The minutes are unchanged either way.
