Work and Sleep

"Sleep awakens! What a paradox. Work and Sleep is a must read for people who care about organizational performance, employee well-being, and sound decision making. This is an invaluable resource, and can positively affect people's lives if the book is acted upon." --CATHERINE R. BELL, Founder and Author of The Awakened Company; Founder of BluEra "Work and Sleep strikes a nice balance between covering traditional research on shiftwork and fatigue, and describing exciting new areas within organizational research that may be impacted by sleep. This book is a 'must read' for graduate students in occupational health psychology, organizational researchers, and occupational safety professionals." --STEVE JEX, Professor, Department of Psychology, Bowling Green State University "The editors of this volume have assembled an impressive team of researchers who provide cutting-edge reviews on the many elements and processes that make up the complex two-way relation between work and sleep. These reviews provide invaluable information for researchers interested in pushing the frontier on this issue. Work and Sleep is a 'must read' for managers and those formulating organizational policy, as well as clinicians and healthcare practitioners. The basic take away message is that work matters for sleep, and sleep matters for work." --MICHAEL R. FRONE, Senior Research Scientist, Research Institute on Addictions, State University of New York at Buffalo; Author of Alcohol and Illicit Drug Use in the Workforce and Workplace "The importance of sleep in employees' lives and functioning has been the focus of research across several disciplines. This volume presents a singularly important integration of this literature and the effects of sleep on work, productivity and well-being, as well as the effects of work on sleep. It is a 'must read' for managers, human resources professionals, occupational health specialists, and workers and their families, providing important insights into what we know about sleep and work and the implications for well-being and management education." --LOIS TETRICK, Professor, Department of Psychology, George Mason University
