The Business Case for Better Night Work: Science, Strategy and Solutions
Webinar featuring Dr. Lockley and industry leaders on the science, business impact, and practical solutions for shift work disruption.
What to expect
In today’s 24-hour economy, night and shift workers keep critical industries running - from healthcare and logistics to manufacturing and infrastructure.
But shift work also carries real risks. Sleep disruption alone is estimated to cost the UK economy £50B each year through lost productivity, staff turnover, absenteeism and workplace accidents, while also significantly impacting the health and wellbeing of the 8.7 million people who work at night.
This webinar brings together leading voices in sleep and circadian neuro science, organisational leadership and workforce education to examine the impact of shift work and what organisations can do about it.
You will hear the latest science on sleep and circadian disruption from Dr. Steven Lockley, a leading international authority on human sleep and circadian rhythms; understand why a holistic organisational approach to tackling shift work solutions matters from People and Culture leader Catherine Muriden; and learn practical ways to engage and educate shift workers with insights from shift worker training and engagement specialist Ben Lumley.
What you will learn
- Learn the latest science on sleep, fatigue and circadian rhythms in a 24-hour economy.
