Cover Story: Positive lifestyle behaviors are fundamental to achieving good health [1] and could be influenced by work conditions [2]. This study aims to analyze the effect of shift work on nurses’ lifestyle habits. A total of 299 nurses were recruited from primary health settings (Spain) and completed a questionnaire including sociodemographic characteristics, working conditions and lifestyle behavior. Descriptive analysis and logistic regression models were performed. In all, 95% of the nurses had an adequate diet, 45.2% were sedentary and 85.8% did not smoke; 60.3% did shift work, especially the youngest ones (80.8%; p < 0.001), these nurses being the ones with the worst food habits (81.8%). Nurses who did shift work exercised more days a week (69.5%; p < 0.001). Shift work harmed eating habits but was a protective factor in terms of adherence to physical exercise. View this paper
