Rotating shift work schedules that disrupt sleep are improved by applying circadian principles

C A Czeisler et al. Science. .

Abstract

Workers on rotating shifts dislike those aspects of their work schedules that violate circadian sleep-wake cycle physiology. Work schedule satisfaction, subjective health estimates, personnel turnover, and worker productivity improve when schedules are introduced that are designed to incorporate circadian principles.
