Background: Detection of appropriate models for the distribution of property population is very important. In the present study, the combined mixture distributions and multi-level analysis with Bayesian approach were used to determine the relationship between shift work and Framingham Risk Score (FRS).Methods: The model designed to evaluate the relationship between shift work and the Framingham score was utilized on the data obtained in a cross-sectional study on 3243 workers of Mobarakeh Steel Company, Iran, in the first 6 months of 2015.Findings: The workers consisted of 1690 day workers with a mean age of 42.13 ± 6.13, 1356 routine rotating shift workers with mean age of 40.75 ± 6.09, and 197 weekly rotating shift workers with mean age of 41.60 ± 6.10. In this study, by controlling the confounding factors, shift work showed a statistical relationship with FRS.Conclusion: According to the results of this study, the FRS was higher among shift workers than day workers. This result has been supported by previous studies.
