I'm 21 years old and hand have been working split shifts for the last 3 years, 2 weeks 6am-2pm then 2 weeks 2-10pm. I have heard recently that working split shifts for 15 years or more can increase the risk of developing heart disease in later life by around 300%. Is there be a risk from working my pattern or is it mainly those who work both nights and days?
