Period of work (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

shift

stint

(Other definitions for stint that I've seen before include "Allotted period (of work)" , "one's allotted task" , "Prescribed share of work" , "Stretch; be miserly" , "Be niggardly, or fixed amount of work" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Mirror, The Wall Street Journal, the L.A. Times Daily and The Washington Post.
