Call for papers: Shift work, sleep and fatigue
The effects of shift work on physical and mental health and wellbeing are not entirely well understood. Some of the effects are linked to sleep and fatigue. Shift work, sleep and fatigue – both in combination and separately - are areas ripe for research. The effect of sleep on health and wellbeing and the impact on work is still a rapidly developing area. We would therefore like to invite authors to submit papers for a special themed issue on shift work, sleep and fatigue. (Source: Occupational Medicine)

Factors associated with workability in Spanish health centre workers
ConclusionsThe present study identified factors associated with the workability of health centre workers. The two-factor workability index (WAI) has better psychometric properties and used in combination with the global measure of WAI, identifies important additional aspects, specifically, age and years of professional experience as additional considerations for the intervention.
