Adverse Health Effects Related to Shift Work Patterns and Work Schedule Tolerance in Emergency Medical Services Personnel: A Scoping Review [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2022
Paramedicine as a profession is continually evolving in clinical practice, responsibilities, and workload. Changes over time in both population demographics and distribution have altered the demand for, and availability of, prehospital emergency medical services (EMS). These factors may also affect scheduling policies in many EMS organizations. However,

Personality factors predict sleep-related shift work tolerance in different shifts at 2-year follow-up: a prospective study [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2013
Objectives The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the personality variables morningness, flexibility, languidity and hardiness could predict sleep-related shift work tolerance for the day, evening and night shifts, respectively.

Periodic self-rostering in shift work: correspondence between objective work hours, work hour preferences (personal fit), and work schedule satisfaction

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2012
OBJECTIVES: The main objective of the present study was to investigate relative personal fit as the association between rated needs and preferences for work hours, on the one hand, and actual work hours, on the other hand, in three groups (hospital, call-

Tolerance Scheduling for CPS

open access: yesIndustrial Cyber-Physical Systems, 2020
Scheduling, as a decision-making process, plays a crucial role in manufacturing. Most production systems work in dynamic environments, where disrupting events may result in non-optimality or infeasibilities of the previously defined production schedules.

Personality factors predicting changes in shift work tolerance: A longitudinal study among nurses working rotating shifts

open access: yes, 2012
The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between personality factors (hardiness, morningness, flexibility, and languidity) and longitudinal changes on different measures of shift work tolerance (fatigue, sleepiness, anxiety and ...

Systematic review of shift work and nurses' health.

open access: yesOccupational Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Nursing is characterized by a working articulation in shifts to ensure continuity of care throughout the 24 h. However, shift work and the resulting desynchronization of circadian rhythms may have adverse effects on nurses' health.

Does non-standard work mean non-standard health? Exploring links between non-standard work schedules, health behavior, and well-being

open access: yesSSM: Population Health, 2018
The last century has seen dramatic shifts in population work circumstances, leading to an increasing normalization of non-standard work schedules (NSWSs), defined as non-daytime, irregular hours.
