What are the second shift work hours?

Second shift work hours refer to a work schedule that usually happens outside of the traditional work day (9 am to 5 pm). Second-shift work hours can vary depending on the specific employer and industry. But in general, they refer to a work schedule that commences during the late afternoon or early evening and then ends late at night.

There can be many different configurations of a second shift. For example, one might start in the late afternoon around 3 or 4 pm and then end somewhere between 11 pm and midnight. While another might begin later in the evening around 5 or 6 pm (or even later) and then end sometime in the early morning hours, like between 12 am to 5 am.
