Here are links to articles I've written about 8-hour shift schedules:
1. 8-hour fixed shift schedules
2. 8-hour rotating shift schedules
3. 8-hour shift schedules with no built-in overtime
4. 8-hour shift schedules for 24/7 coverage
5. Mixing 8-hour shifts and 12-hour shifts
If you are looking for examples of 8-hour schedules for 24/7 coverage:
1. Package of ten different 8-hour rotating shift schedules
2. Package of five different 8-hour fixed shift schedules with coverage in 3-person increments
If you have any of these conditions, you will need a custom-designed schedule:
1. Your company's hours of operation are less than 24/7
2. Your coverage varies by day of the day, e.g., 4-person coverage on weekdays and 2-person coverage on weekends
3. Your coverage is not a multiple of 3, e.g., you need 2-person coverage
