What are 12 hour rotating shifts?

12 hour rotating shifts are work schedules where employees work 12-hour shifts that alternate or rotate between days and nights, or between different shifts throughout a set period (such as weekly or biweekly). Commonly used in industries that require 24/7 staffing, like healthcare or manufacturing, these shifts can provide longer stretches of time off but may also involve working weekends and holidays. The rotation helps distribute workloads and allows all employees to have opportunities for both daytime and nighttime shifts.
