    Objective: Systematize evidence on the risk of breast cancer in workers exposed to rotating schedules. Material and Methods: The research design is systematic reviews, meta-analysis, cases and controls, using the Pubmed NCBI and Sciencedirect database instrument. Not older than 10 years. For the study, 42 scientific research articles were analyzed, leaving 10 articles as a sample: meta-analysis and cases and controls (30%), systematic review and meta-analysis (20%), mixed and descriptive linear regression (10%), They belong to the countries of China and the USA (30%), Europe (20%), Germany, Spain, Poland and Norway (10%). Results: Of 10 articles reviewed, 90% conclude that the exposure of workers to rotating schedules has the risk of developing breast cancer, 5 articles recommending further studies to support this relationship, 3 articles mention that interrupting the circadian rhythm causes a decrease in melatonin, an anti-cancer hormone, increasing this risk in workers who work rotating schedules for long periods of time (15-20 years). Conclusions: A positive relationship was evident between the exposure of workers to rotating schedules specifically after midnight and working for more than 15-20 years, presenting an increased risk of developing breast cancer.
