multiple contition field in a query

How can a query display multiple fields with diferent condition on the same
field
example

I have a field name of reason and a field name of duration. I would like to
display 2 fileds of total duration but each have different reasion criteria.

display Total Recall based on a calculation that adds the total duration for
each record that has a criteria of RC
on the same query display Total Shift based upon a calculation that adds the
total duration for each record that has a criteria of TR, AL, OT

I can do this in a query that only displays either the Total Recall or Total
Shift but not both in the same query.

Is there a way to this

Thanks,
Ivan

sum(IIF(reason = 'TR', duration,
IIF(reason = 'AL', duration,
IIF(reason = 'OT', duration, 0))) as totalShift FROM ....
