Sleep's Impact on Workplace and Employee Safety
Sleep deprivation can be a major predictor of accidents and injuries among fatigued workers and employees. Decision-making is compromised, and cognitive processes are slowed. The increased risk is stark and sobering.

But scientific studies show otherwise. Over the long term, sleep deprivation and chronic lack of sleep actually make it harder for us to accurately gauge whether we are getting the appropriate amount of sleep.

Another reason why insomnia is so common is because sleep is easily disrupted by many things such as stress, illness, or even travel.
