Surviving the Graveyard Shift

Article Abstract:

Employees may be working non-nine-to-five hours in the new economic climate. Questions concerning the physical and mental well-being of the night-shift worker arise. Chronobiology is the study of the body rhythms and cycles. Chronobiologists studied physical and emotional problems of night workers that effect health and productivity. Workers can adjust to night work if the schedule is consistent. Night workers can help maintain their health and alertness at work by: moderating unhealthy habits, and establishing a consistent well managed lifestyle.
