Narrative:

It has become a common practice at hya ATCT to schedule air traffic controllers to work alone combining local, ground control, flight data clearance delivery, and controller in charge for periods up to 6 hours and 15 mins. It is a common practice to schedule controllers to work alone 6, 5, and 4 hours running the entire tower cabin attendant. This could have grave results that could result in loss of life, accidents, or incidents. So far we have been all right, but the potential for problems grows all the time with fatigue, employee illness, etc. Something should be done as soon as possible.
