Shift Work

Shift Work is a work-schedule arrangement in which required working hours fall outside the conventional daytime period (typically the standard 9 a.m.–5 p.m. schedule), commonly involving evening, night, rotating, or irregular shifts that recurrently impose wakefulness and activity during the usual biological night and thereby challenge circadian alignment.
