Yonder: Sleep health, advanced liver disease, CombiConsultations, and #BetterHealth

[摘要] Sleep health. Sleep plays a critical role inphysical and mental health, although littleis known about the intersecting influenceson gender and work on sleep health. Arecent Canadian study explored motivators,facilitators, and barriers to sleep healthin 20 men employed in male-dominatedindustries.1 Despite an awareness of someof the strategies to enable healthy sleep,the findings indicate that men normalisedsleep deprivation. Family responsibilitiesand workplace norms were implicatedand reflected masculine ideals related toperseverance, resilience, and genderedrole expectations. In addition to timeconstraints, intrusive thoughts and worriesabout burnout kept many men from gettingthe sleep they wanted and needed. Thestudy concludes that gender-sensitiveorganisational practices are needed tosupport sleep health among working men.
