Abstract:
The rates of shift work outside of daylight hours have increased in recent years, and nighttime shift work is now considered a potential carcinogenic occupational exposure. Light at night exposure, lower melatonin production, and the production of stress-related mediators disrupt normal sleep–wake cycles. Women who work lower-wage jobs and part-time workers whose shifts are determined entirely by their supervisors (rotating shifts) may be subject to stress related to efforts to align childcare and other needs with the unpredictable nature of rotating shift work. The causal link between breast cancer and the sleep cycle or circadian disruption are yet to be established; however, disruption of the circadian cycles by light at night exposure or chronic exposure to stress-related mediators have all been linked to the increased risk of breast cancer. We review the existing literature on shift work and breast cancer, identify knowledge gaps, and suggest future directions for research.

Abstract:
Background: An association between working shift at a young age and subsequent risk for multiple sclerosis (MS) has been observed. Objective: To investigate whether this finding could be replicated, and to further explore the influence of age at first exposure to shift work. Methods: Using a Swedish population-based, case-control study (2337 cases and 4904 controls), the incidence of MS among subjects whom had worked shifts was compared with that of those whom had not, by calculating odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) by means of logistic regression. Results: The OR of developing MS was 1.5 (95% CI 1.2–1.8) among those whom started working shifts before age 20, whereas a less pronounced association was observed among those whom started working shifts at age 20 or later (OR 1.2; 95% CI 1.1–1.4). The effect of shift work was more pronounced among subjects whom had been exposed at a young age, regardless of the duration between the start of shift work and disease onset. Conclusion: Some aspects of adolescence seem to be of great importance, regarding the impact of shift work on MS risk. Circadian disruption and sleep deprivation may contribute towards explaining the association; however, the exact mechanisms behind our observations remain to be elucidated.

Abstract:
Shift work is a work schedule being the opposite of normal daytime work, often defined as working time outside normal daytime hours (06:00 to 18:00). In recent years, shift work has been associated with an increased risk of numerous chronic conditions including for example cardiovascular disease, some types of cancer, type II diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome. While some studies on the association between shift work and chronic disease have found results supporting it, others have not. Therefore, more research is needed to clarify potential associations.The aim of this thesis was to further study the proposed association between shift work and cardiovascular disease. This was addressed by performing two studies, one analysing if shift workers had an increased risk of ischemic stroke compared to day workers. The other study analysed whether shift workers had an increased risk of short-term mortality (case fatality) after a myocardial infarction compared to day workers. The studies were performed using logistic regression analysis in two different case-control databasesThe findings from the first study indicated that shift workers did not have an increased risk of ischemic stroke. The findings from the second study showed that male shift workers had an increased risk of death within 28 days after a myocardial infarction; the results did not indicate an increased risk for female shift workers. The results from both studies were adjusted for both behavioural and medical risk factors without affecting the results. The findings from this thesis provide new evidence showing that male shift workers have an increased risk of death 28 days after a myocardial infarction, however more research is needed to clarify and characterise any such potential associations.

Abstract:
Shift work is often defined as working time outside daytime hours (06:00 to 18:00). In recent years, shift work has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), type II diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome. While some studies support the associations, others do not. Therefore, more research is needed. The aim of this thesis was to further study the association between shift work and CVD. This was addressed by performing four studies, one analysed if shift workers had an increased risk of ischemic stroke, the second study analysed whether shift workers had an increased risk of short-term mortality (case fatality)after a myocardial infarction (MI). The third study analysed if shift work interacts with other risk factors for MI and the fourth study analysed if parental history of CVD interacted with shift work on the risk of MI. The studies were performed using logistic regression analyses and additive interaction analyses in two different case-control databases. Shift workers did not have an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Male shift workers had an increased risk of death within 28 days after a MI. Shift work interacts with some CVD risk factors and interacts with paternal history of CVD and the risk of MI for males. The findings from this thesis provide new evidence showing that shift work is in different ways associated with an increased risk of MI and related mortality, but not with ischemic stroke. However, more research is needed to clarify and characterise these results.

Abstract:
Shift work is a major feature of modern work practices. It involves individuals working at times considered unconventional for most workers, such as at night. Although the community often benefits from such work practices, shift work can be hazardous, for both the workers and the community. The thesis reviews the main problems of shift work, especially when involving night work. These are: an increased risk for accidents and errors; increased sleepiness and fatigue due to difficulties sleeping; increased health problems; and disruption to family and social life. Strategies to limit the risk associated with these hazards are also reviewed, and include using knowledge of circadian principles to plan shift schedules, sleeping schedules and meal times; planned napping; consideration of the work environment; and newer techniques such as using bright lights and melatonin. While this information is known to the research community, it has not filtered down to many shift work workplaces and thus has had little if any positive effect on actual shift work practices. For a change in shift work practices to occur, the research knowledge must become available to every shift work workplace, as must some incentive or motivation to ensure that workplaces make the necessary changes. The Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) laws provide such a framework. Considering shift work as an OHS hazard would ensure that all shift work workplaces identified the hazards of shift work, conducted a risk assessment to identify the risk associated with the hazards, and then implemented the appropriate strategies, from the hierarchy of shift work hazard control measures, for both employers and employees, to fulfil their duty of care to minimise the risks. Considering shift work as an OHS issue would ensure that the research information was used as intended – to improve the safety, performance, and quality of life of all shift workers. The present thesis reviews the shift work research and introduces an OHS perspective as a method to manage shift work effectively.

Abstract:
Shift work and work-related stress is a rising concern among the workforce population because of the potential link to cardiovascular disease (CVD). While these exposures are common in emergency services, there are few studies examining if these factors increase CVD risk among paramedics. The aim of this dissertation is to address this research gap. The first study examined neuroendocrine activity related to shift work and job strain. Shift workers (n=14) reported higher job strain than daytime workers (n=7) and exhibited neuroendocrine dysregulation through salivary biomarkers (alpha-amylase and cortisol) and subclinical CVD indicators (heart rate variability and endothelial functioning). The sampling protocol developed in this study can be used for future, large-scale field studies. The second and third studies used records of emergency runs attended by British Columbia (BC) paramedics between 1990/1 and 2002 to derive exposures, and administrative records from the BC Linked Health Database to ascertain CVD cases. The second study used a nested case-control design with 11 years follow-up (n = 183 – 742). Three controls were matched per case by age, sex and first year of employment. Results of conditional logistic regression did not support hypotheses that shift work was associated with hypertension, chronic coronary syndrome nor acute coronary syndrome; nor that time away from shift work may reduce the risk of CVD. However, development of novel shift work metrics which incorporated periods of neuroendocrine dysregulation and recovery should be considered in future studies. The third study used a case-crossover design to compare exposures during 4 days prior to onset of acute coronary events to exposures in 4 randomly chosen days in the month prior for each acute coronary case (n=65). Results suggest non-significant increased risks of acute coronary syndrome were associated with busy work days, high-stress emergencies and discrepancies between dispatched information and diagnosis at the scene. A delay in onset of acute coronary events was also observed. Results suggest current psychological debriefing sessions may not be effective and that considerations should be made to improve mental health programs to reduce psychological strain.

Abstract:
Abstract: The article presents the results of a psychophysiological examination of drivers of passenger and export traffic, working in the day and night shifts, respectively. The dynamics of performing psychophysiological tests (changes in the reaction rate, the number of errors, perception of time intervals, etc.) after day and night shifts was revealed, and differences in the subjective perception of the specifics of work in the daytime and at night were also noted. Working the night shift requires the driver to mobilize psychophysiological resources aimed at maintaining active wakefulness and fighting monotony. Day trips are perceived to be more stressful due to more input and traffic. Target: The study of the functional state dynamics of train drivers working without an assistant during day and night trips with an increase in the duration of working hours up to 8 hours in passenger traffic and up to 12 - in export traffic. Methods: 1. Express test of the functional state; 2. «Sense of time» test; 3. Stress resistance test; 4. Survey «Well-being. Activity, mood (SAN)»; 5. Survey «Diagnostics of states of reduced performance (DORS)». Results: The dynamics of the speed and stability of the visual-motor reaction, the accuracy of the perception of time intervals, as well as the subjective perception of the features of day and night shifts by train drivers themselves, makes it possible to distinguish differences in the specifics of shift work: in the daytime it is distinguished by greater intensity, tension, which is reflected in the number of erroneous actions during testing after a day's ride on the simulator, and in the subjective experience of stress noted by the drivers. The need to work at night requires considerable efforts from train drivers to mobilize, which is manifested during a psychophysiological examination before the night shift, however, forced wakefulness during night work leads to a state of monotony among train drivers.

Abstract:
Introduction: Shift work schedule is typical for most professions in railway transport. The need to stay awake at night, combined with high responsibility for traffic safety, is factor that reduces work efficiency, and therefore regular monitoring of workers functional state and its timely correction is necessary. Goal: Locomotive crews working in passenger traffic in day and night shifts on locomotive simulator «EP1M» functional state dynamics study. Research methods: Psychophysiological methods («Express test of the functional state», «Sense of time», «Stability of attention», «Complex motor reaction»); questionnaire «Health, activity, mood»; daily monitoring of blood pressure; analysis of erroneous actions in the simulator. Results: There were founded a number of differences in the results of psychophysiological examination before and after trips, both during the day and night. Blood pressure daily dynamics during day and night shifts was revealed. The «critical hours» of passenger traffic locomotive crews work, during which the risk of making mistakes increases, are noted. Conclusion: Locomotive crews (passenger traffic) during the day and night shifts psychophysiological functions changes dynamics was revealed.

Bano, Masooda. Beating the ‘Anti-Work’ Culture: Lessons from a Successful Attemptto Improve Performance in State Schools in Pakistan. Research on Improving Systems of Education (RISE)r, August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.35489/bsg-rise-wp_2022/105.

Abstract:
What local-level factors, or horizontal pressures, can improve learning outcomes in government schools in developing countries, when the political elites and education bureaucracy are not exerting enough vertical pressure on principals and teachers to ensure improvement in learning outcomes? Existing research suggests the role of principals, investment in teacher training or improving financial incentives, and increased community participation as possible ways to enhance performance of teachers and principals. Assessing a 25-year state-school improvement programme run by CARE, a prominent education foundation in Pakistan, which has demonstrated visible success in improving student enrolment and performance in national matriculation exams and transition to college and university education, this paper shows that while principals can play a critical role in improving school performance, the real challenge is to suppress the ‘anti-work’ culture that prevails in state schools in countries where appointments of teachers as well as principals remain a source of political patronage. The paper shows that in such contexts NGOs, if given the contractual authority to monitor performance, can act as effective third-party enforcers to help shift the balance in favour of ‘pro-work’ teachers. However, for systematic long-term improvement in school performance, this support needs to come via the district-level education authorities—and this, as we shall see, is often also missing in such contexts. The findings from this study thus support growing evidence on the challenges confronting efforts to strengthen the short route of accountability in countries where the long route of accountability is weak. In such a political-economy context, even committed principals are unlikely to be able to shift school culture in favour of a ‘pro-work’ ethic unless there are wide-ranging reforms in the wider political and bureaucratic culture.

Full text
Abstract:
Oxfam-supported enterprises have generated high impact and demonstrated strong business performance. Now, the shift to make women’s economic empowerment a more central focus and the opportunity to generate more meaningful impact has put us on track to transition towards a new enterprise investment model. In the future, more attention will be paid to the structural injustices that women face, to change enterprise practices and generate evidence to influence institutional change so that women can exercise their agency and claim their rights. Increasing the number of women in paid jobs can only be meaningful when unpaid care and domestic work and gender-based violence are recognized and action is taken to address them.
