 Poor sleep slows both physical and

cognitive reaction times and accuracy,

increasing risk for injury in the workplace.

Drivers who get six hours of sleep or less are 33% more likely to have an accident on the road, compared to those who get seven or eight hours of sleep. Driving while sleep-deprived has the same or worse impact as driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.05%

Fatigue and poor sleep also contribute to productivity losses (a measurement of employee efficiency when completing required tasks) costing employers $1,967 per employee per year and adding up to approximately 1.23 million lost working days annually.

Scientific research confirms that job stress can affect your sleep. A 2005 study in the journal Sleep involved 8,770 Japanese workers. In both men and women, a high level of stress at work was linked to insomnia.
