WALTER, Jorge. Social risks of long shift work: Work and family life in crisis in a patagonian oil camp. Laboreal [online]. 2015, vol.11, n.2, pp.36-52. ISSN 1646-5237.  https://doi.org/10.15667/laborealxi0215jw.

There is abundant literature regarding long-shifts work and the quality of life in onshore oil camps and offshore platforms and their impact on the health and the physical and psycho-sociological safety and the family life of workers. The common factor of the life style of oil workers - and other professions accustomed to long shift works - lies, however, in sociability problems at work and in personal life. We reached this conclusion, the starting point for further research, from a perceptions survey in which we inquired on these features through interviews and focus groups where - an unusual fact in this kind of surveys - the staff of subcontracting companies participated and whose testimonies pointed us in this direction.
