Correct or not? no. 15 - on/in/at a/the morning shift?

Howdy,

Are these sentences OK? I'm not sure if the word shift collocates with on or in or at. I think it's the first one. Plus, I don't know if it should be preceeded by any article or not.

Are you on a morning shift tomorrow?
Are you having a morning shift tomorrow?
Do you have a morning shift tomorrow?

Thanks
