Shift Work Sleep Disorder

For people who work shifts at extreme or irregular hours, the body's internal clock can become disoriented, resulting in a sleep disorder known as shift work sleep disorder (SWSD). Shift work sleep disorder is caused by working hours that don't match up with the body's natural circadian rhythms.
