Supporting the Self-care Practices of Shift Workers

Working in shifts can cause great disruption in a person's life, impacting their health, family, and social life. Previous work has raised numerous issues of shift work, but there is little understanding of how workers practically deal with the challenges of shift work. This study investigates how shift workers engage in self-care to avoid health issues and deal with their shifts in practical terms. Findings show that shift workers engage in numerous activities for preparing, managing, and recovering from night shifts. Moreover, we describe the design of a mobile app for shift workers, designed based on the characteristics and self-care practices of shift workers.
