| 单词 | shift work |
| 释义 | shift work Work scheduled so that the same equipment can be used by more than one set of workers in a day. Two- or three-shift working involves some shifts working at ‘unsocial hours’: this is likely to involve paying workers extra to compensate them for this, and may reduce their efficiency. It is worth incurring these costs in capital-intensive industries where equipment is too expensive to be kept idle for much of the time. Shift working is also necessary in some industries using continuous processes and in organizations such as the police, fire and ambulance services, providing round-the-clock cover. |
