Appears the term got its start as "svingskift" (literally: swing shift) in the offshore petroleum industry in Norway referring to a two-week tour during which employees work 12-hour days the first seven days and 12-hour nights the second, thus 'swinging' from a day shift to a night shift.
The next reference to 'swing-shift' appears during the Second World War, where factories were on a 24x7 schedule with 3 shifts, 'swing-shift' being the second shift of mid-afternoon to midnight.
