Workshops

Our team gives workshops for night shift workers at hospitals and other workplaces. We currently have funding to deliver select workshops for no cost.

Workshop: Evidence-based strategies to reduce shift work fatigue

Description

Shift workers often experience high levels of fatigue. This workshop gives practical and evidence-based strategies to mitigate this issue. We begin with an overview of chronobiology and its implications for shift work. We then discuss the optimal timing of strategies to reduce fatigue and improve work performance. These strategies include:

Attendees will then build their own plan based on their most feasible strategies to reduce fatigue.
