Objective: to determine the differences in the health-related quality of life of physicians and nurses who perform shift work at the Hospital General Docente Ambato - Ecuador. Methods: Descriptive observational study. Results and conclusions: From the results obtained, it can be concluded that workers with an ordinary 8-hour workday show statistically significant differences with the lowest quality of life scores in the domains of Physical Function, Emotional Role, Pain and General Health, being the workers who perform 24-hour shifts, who reached the highest scores, obtaining contradictory findings to the aforementioned studies that indicate the repercussion that shift work has on physical and mental health, being imperative to carry out a follow-up and a new research of explanatory type that allows to identify the causes or aggravating factors that influence the workers with an ordinary 8-hour workday.
