TELLEZ LOPEZ, Arnoldo et al. Sleep disorders and sleep quality in shift and daytime industrial workers. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2015, vol.14, n.2, pp.711-722. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy14-2.tcst.

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of sleep disorders and their relationship with the sleep quality, stress, depression and medical variables in a sample of operational staff and compare these variables among shift workers (173 ) and fixed workers (153). We found that shift workers have more sleep disorders such as insomnia, snoring, excessive daytime sleepiness, among others, reported a poorer quality of sleep and have a higher score on depression compared with usual fixed workers. It is important to continue research with shift workers to seek strategies to improve their quality of life.
