Nightworkers experience a circadian

of decreased alertness during their shifts.

This occurs between midnight, when

levels are lowest, and 4:00am, when

is at its lowest.

Workers who sleep by day experience problems because daylight reduces

quality.

Knutsson et al (1986) found that individuals who worked shifts for over 15 years were three times more likely to develop

than non-shift workers.
