    Sickness leaves in industrial workers correlate with shifts in hemodynamic balance influenced by biorhythms. Assigning workers to shifts matching their biological suitability can optimize deployment and reduce absenteeism.

    Area of Science:

    • Occupational Health
    • Chronobiology
    • Physiology

    Context:

    • High absenteeism in 162 industrial workers studied.
    • Focus on annual sickness leave patterns.
    • Investigated hemodynamic balance fluctuations.

    Purpose:

    • To determine the relationship between biorhythmic cycles, hemodynamic balance, and sickness absence.
    • To identify worker subgroups affected by night work and seasons.
    • To provide recommendations for optimal shift-worker deployment.

    Summary:

    • Sick leave periods coincided with specific hemodynamic balance states linked to shift work, day/night cycles, and seasons.
    • Identified worker subgroups experiencing performance impacts from night shifts and seasonal changes.
    • Found a correlation between biorhythmic cycles, physiological balance, and absenteeism.

    Impact:

    • Suggests tailoring shift assignments to individual biological rhythms for improved worker well-being.
    • Highlights the importance of chronobiology in occupational health strategies.
    • Potential to reduce absenteeism and enhance productivity through personalized shift scheduling.
