How many working shifts do you have in your country?

Some countries have four working shifts. That means even at nights, it is still working hours for people in that country. Some other countries have two shifts. That's to say working hours is just 12 hours which is half of a day.

In hospitals, and other emergency services, we have four shifts. But for other kinds of industries, we have two shifts.

This depends on company's policy. For media houses, hospitals there are 4 shifts, for shopping malls, there are two shifts, where as for normal organization there is just one shift

Multi-national companies here have three shifts only. Security agencies in the past have had two shifts the day and evening shifts but it is not anymore happening this time. The banks for example and jewelry shops use Time Locks.

For businesses that have to be open 24 hours, there is no other alternative than to have at least three shifts.

Though we have night shifts but a lot of people here don't like to run night shift due to how hectic it can be

It depends on the industry that you are in. Hotels and related businesses effectively run night shifts.

We have different working shifts here. As most of the jobs here are outsourced, we have AMER shift (America) meaning people from here work at night time. We have APAC shift (Asia and the Pacific) Asia and Australia, New Zealand etc. meaning people work day time and EMEA shift (Europe and Middle East) people work late morning and early evening. This is to mirror customers time.

That's because you are working at a Call Center. You have to entertain customer needs mostly in the evening. While ours here is morning, in other countries evening. There's time difference.

It depends on the kind of workplace and your nature of job. There are four shifts in many places for certain jobs that need 24*7 presence. That might be a call centre or hospital security guard etc.

In my city, people don't work at night. We don't have an active nightlife culture here for people to work late into the night.
