目的：这项观察性研究旨在确定工作时间控制 (WTC) 的 1 年变化如何对客观测量的员工疲劳和睡眠产生影响。方法：根据工作时间控制 (WTC) 是否从基线到 1 年后增加，将 39 名员工分为两组。精神运动警戒任务（PVT）和腕部体动记录仪分别用于客观测量疲劳和睡眠。还测量了自我报告的结果。 结果：与未增加 WTC 的组相比，在随访期间，增加 WTC 的组在 PVT 表现和睡眠质量方面表现出逐渐改善。 PVT 失效的组间差异具有统计学显着性，并且 1 年后 PVT 速度的差异也趋于显着。结论：WTC 的逐步增加可以在减轻员工疲劳和促进睡眠方面发挥关键作用。
Objectives:This observational study aimed to determine how 1-year changes in work time control (WTC) have an impact upon objectively measured fatigue and sleep among employees.Methods:Thirty-nine employees were divided into two groups according to whether or not their WTC increased from baseline to 1 year later. Psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) and wrist actigraphy were used to objectively measure fatigue and sleep, respectively. Self-reported outcomes were also measured.Results:The increased WTC group showed gradual improvements in PVT performance and sleep quality over the course of the follow-up period compared with the not-increased WTC group. Between-group differences were statistically significant for PVT lapses and tended to be significant for PVT speed after 1 year.Conclusions:A progressive increase in WTC could play a crucial role in reducing fatigue and promoting sleep among employees.
