Shift work alters workers exposure to natural and artificial light, sleep patterns, and feeding patterns. Among other working population, shift workers are at a greater risk of developing metabolic impairments over time. Hence, this study aimed to study the relationship between workers’ health and night shift work in food franchise industry in Kuching, Sarawak. The independent variables are sleep pattern, mental health, psychological well-being, circadian rhythm, and insomnia, while the dependent variable is night shift work. Questionnaires were distributed using convenience sampling techniques and a total of 59 questionnaires were collected.  Pearson Correlations test. showed that there is a significant relationship between workers’ health and night shift work. The implications on this research shows that there are more researches on the mitigation of health risk on shift workers.  Keywords: Night shift work; sleep pattern; mental health; psychological; circadian rhythm; insomnia

Abstract Background Cancer is a major public health concern as it is a leading cause of death worldwide. The risk of endocrine-related cancers may be associated with suboptimal sleep quality due to disruptions in circadian rhythm. However, the extent of this relationship is not clear and warrants a review summarizing recent research findings. This systematic review aims to provide an updated summary of the literature surrounding the association between night shift work, sleep quality, circadian rhythm disruption and the risk of endocrine-related cancers. Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science databases have been searched for related cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies. The search was limited to studies published in English, after the year 2000. Non peer-reviewed literature and randomized control trials, were excluded. Reviewers will independently extract data on study characteristics, sleep quality measures, circadian rhythm measures, cancer diagnosis, and outcome measures. Risk of bias assessment will be performed using the CLARITY tools. Results Data synthesis is ongoing. Associations between sleep quality, night shift work, circadian disruption and risk of endocrine-related cancer will be summarized and risk estimates will be reported for four endocrine-related cancers: breast, prostate, thyroid, ovarian, and endometrial cancer. If data are available, subgroup analyses will be carried out by cancer type, study design, and age group. Conclusions This review qualitatively synthesizes current literature to determine the extent of the association between sleep quality, night shift work, circadian rhythm disruption and the risk of endocrine-related cancers. These findings can contribute to population-level cancer prevention efforts and aid public health promotion of healthier sleep-related behaviours. Key messages The relationship between sleep quality and endocrine-related cancers should be explored further in public health research due to inconclusive evidence from current literature. The findings of this project can help promote healthy sleep behaviours and population-level cancer prevention.
