In highly industrialised countries shift work has become inevitable for technological, economic and social reasons. At the present time approximately 20% of the workforce are engaged in shift work, which partly includes night and weekend work. As a result of this form of work, diseases and disorders manifest themselves in shift workers which--combined with an individual predisposition or with certain situational factors--arise partly from disturbance of sleep on the day after night work, partly from difficulties in adapting biological function to the phase-shift of work and sleep. The resulting biological and organisational problems with respect to the practicabilities of shift work are discussed in the light of studies on experimental shift work.
在高度工业化国家，由于技术、经济和社会原因，轮班工作已变得不可避免。目前，约20%的劳动力从事轮班工作，其中部分包括夜间和周末工作。这种工作形式导致轮班工人出现疾病和功能紊乱，这些疾病和功能紊乱——与个体易感性或某些情境因素相结合——部分源于夜班后次日睡眠受到干扰，部分源于生物功能难以适应工作和睡眠的相位变化。结合实验性轮班工作的研究，探讨了轮班工作实际操作中由此产生的生物学和组织方面的问题。
