Night work and lack of PPE were major contributors to occupational injury prevalence in iron and steel industries.
This systematic review and meta‑analysis how night duty and post‑shift fatigue shows injuries for night‑shift workers and night owls. The risk windows show up in measurements, explaining why the commute after nights is a recurrent blind spot. For night‑shift teams and individuals, this ties long‑debated rota features to concrete outcomes, making schedule talk about health, not preference.
Meta‑analysis.
