    AbstractA survey of all medical specialist registrars in the UK reveals that a large majority oppose shift working patterns because of their adverse impact on training and quality of life, and on continuity and quality of patient care. This conflicts with the current drive to switch virtually all trainees to shifts by 2004, to comply with the European Union Working Time Directive. More debate is urgently needed.
