* Caffeine Reduces on-the-Job Mistakes *

Shift and nighttime work can sometimes disrupt the body's natural clock, or circadian rhythm. This can lead to shift-work disorder, a sleep disorder in which a person has symptoms of insomnia or excessive sleepiness related to work schedules. The lack of quality sleep can make workers very drowsy while at work.
