Produktbeschreibung
Shift work has become a permanent and large feature
of modern-day society. In 1991 it was found that
approximately 26 percent of the South African
population work shifts of some kind (Adler, 1991:3).
Although shift work has become prevalent, there has
been comparatively little research carried out with
regard to this topic particularly in (Potgieter,
1996:1; Van Rooyen, 2000:1). Various literature
sources indicate and highlight the vast impacts of
shift work internationally, yet literature on the
subject as seen in South Africa is limited (Van
Rooyen, 2000:3). The book explores the existing
knowledge base on shift work, exploring and
describing the experiences of shift workers and
provides guidelines for the promotion of health and
well-being amongst shift workers that ultimately
benefit the employer.
