Expert says workday should begin at midday to reduce rampant sleep deprivation in Western Hemisphere
Dr. Paul Kelley, a sleep researcher who had success with the practice, says companies should allow workers to come in by midday
What would be the ideal time to start the work day? 8 am? 9 am? Well, an expert on the subject says it's neither and if employers want to guarantee the most productivity out of their workers, they should plan to kick off the day somewhere around midday.
LADbible reported the comments of sleep researcher Dr. Paul Kelley, who is one of the strongest advocates for the change because he believes adults in the Western Hemisphere are sleep-deprived given their work begins too early in the day. Kelley's credentials, as well as the fact that he's experienced success with a late work day, suggest the theory may hold some water.
