Abstract
The disruption of natural biological rhythms is increasingly linked to negative health outcomes.
- Working night shifts may adversely affect sleep quality and general well-being.
- Long-term health effects associated with disrupted biological rhythms are becoming clearer.
- Light exposure and circadian rhythm play significant roles in health outcomes.
- Measures to mitigate the effects of night shifts on health are summarized.
- Further research is needed to understand the full impact of unsociable shift patterns.
