Trouble Sleeping? Here’s Why You Should Worry
The pandemic has violently disrupted our lives, including our sleep patterns. And this can lead to serious mental and physical problems
Most adults spend the majority of their time either working or sleeping. However, very little is known of the relationship between the two. On the impact on productivity, one survey says 58 per cent of Indians believe their work suffers due to inadequate sleep, whereas 38 per cent have witnessed a colleague falling asleep at work.
Sleep problems can be both cause and consequence of an individuals’ day-to-day experience, including work. The effects of excessive daytime sleepiness on functioning, cognition, memory, accidents and work errors have been well-studied in countries like the United States, Australia, Japan and France.
