Description

What is the most important thing that we need to do to improve the health of shift workers? Shift work has been shown to increase the risk of developing a number of conditions, including obesity, metabolic complications, cardiovascular issues, gastrointestinal problems, and even certain cancers. In this episode we are joined by Audra Starkey from The Healthy Shift Worker Podcast, who not only discusses the various impacts shift work can have on a person but identifies key actions workers can take to help mitigate these risks and be as healthy as possible, emphasising making quality sleep the priority above all else, as well as what to eat and when.
