A new study into the effects of shift work has found that people working irregular hours could be more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
The report by the Health and Social Care Information Centre found that ill health and obesity were common among those working outside of the hours 7am to 7pm.
Current figures suggest that 33% of men and 22% of women are in shift work, and the report findings suggest this could have an effect on the nation’s health. drwf.org.uk/news_uk/shift-w...
