Article Synopsis
- Shift work can lead to significant health issues, specifically an increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MS), impacting workers globally.
- A study in Tunisia with 263 male electricity production workers showed that of those who worked shifts, 51.2% were diagnosed with MS, compared to only 27.2% of non-shift workers, indicating a strong association between shift work and MS.
- The findings suggest the need for preventive measures, including improved working conditions, dietary changes, and regular exercise, to mitigate these health risks for shift workers.*
