Summary

Reviews eye‑blink metrics (PERCLOS/%TEC) and notes increases after night shifts in simulator and on‑road studies.

Why It Matters For Night Shift Workers and Night Owls

Evidence here how night duty and post‑shift fatigue shows driving safety 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.
