Abstract Shift work disrupts sleep patterns and is linked to adverse health outcomes, yet the role of chronotype in modulating shift workers' behavior remains underexplored. A field study was conducted with 85 workers from an industrial plant Montevideo, Uruguay, operating under a slow, counterclockwise three-shift rotation system. The abbreviated Munich Chronotype Questionnaire used assess timing, duration, napping across shifts, chronotype. Sleep duration on workdays significantly shorter during morning (4.9±0.8h) night shifts (5.0±1.5h) compared afternoon (7.9±1.3h). Napping more frequent (54.1%) (52.9%), contributing almost additional hour mitigate debt. Evening-oriented demonstrated greater flexibility adaptability, sleeping longer days off shifts: 1-hour delay associated 7-25 minutes sleep. Morning-oriented adapted better advancing got These results highlight importance considering individual chronotypes when designing schedules. Personalized schedules could enhance effects work.
