relief person
This is one way to put it.
Lots of instances on the web.
A worker and his relief person, as in
"Waiting for his relief person to turn up"

an operator and his shift relief worker
there are many good examples of use from Google.
This helps make clear that the two workers are working alternate shifts.

: Hi Deborah, I do think this would work, but I have to say that "relief worker" suggests to me a person working in aid contexts, such as famine relief.

hi Gilla, your observation is absolutely true, and thank you for it. I wonder if by putting "shift-relief worker" with a hyphen it would be made clear that "relief" refers to the shift.

relief / alternating shifts
I don.t think it is necessary to specify person/worker. *An operator and his relief* is sufficient and more likely consistent with the language those it applies to use themselves. An operator would probably say *I.m waiting for my relief.* NOT *I.m waiting for my relief worker/person.*
Replacement, IMO, has more of a sense of permanence to it, like one worker quitting a job and being replaced by another, rather than just changing shifts.
Another option, depending on context of course, would be to forgo *relief* altogether and just say that *two operators work alternating 12-hour shifts.*
