Shiftwork is common in many countries, especially in food service and retail sectors. Workers in these industries often have little advance notice of their schedules and shifts are frequently changed at the last minute. Having unpredictable schedules can negatively impact workers' wellbeing and productivity. It can also pose safety risks, as performance tends to dip at night due to circadian rhythms. While shiftwork allows businesses to operate continuously, the associated costs to workers' health, family lives, and safety should not be ignored. Providing more stable and predictable schedules could help address these issues.
