There are 3 shifts on the ship. Each are 8 hours.
1st = 0800 to 1600 (8AM to 4PM) 2nd = 1600 to 0000 (4PM to Midnight) 3rd = 0000 to 0800 (Midnight to 8AM)
aka: Day, Evening, and Graveyard shifts.
Each crew-member gets 1 shift of work, 1 of recreation, and 1 of sleep.

If you are a head of a certain department, such as Head of Engineering you still only work one shift but must be ready to be called upon at any time. Who knows when emergencies will happen?

Also, keep in mind that your character is unlikely to be too familiar with characters who have a different shift schedule than them.
They'll probably only see each other on away missions/ shore leave/ emergencies. Or in passing.
Thus, when your character goes to his/ her station, he/ she will almost always be relieving someone else.
