In the course of the discussion, the idea of optimizing shift times for chronotypes emerged. This was based on the results of regular employee surveys. The issue of &#8220;sleep disorders&#8221; was increasingly described as a burden, particularly among employees working shifts. In a subsequent workshop, the ideas were fleshed out and conceptually consolidated into an overall project entitled &#8220;Chronobiology in clinical practice&#8221;.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35123c9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"35123c9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-404cbd7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"404cbd7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Goals<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-485bf11 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"485bf11\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-29f6669 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"29f6669\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6>On the part of the employees:<\/h6><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Reducing the risk of illness, especially in the area of mental stress (burnout, depression, psychosomatic consequences, etc.)<\/li><li>Improvement of personal well-being<\/li><li>Increase in the average duration of sleep<\/li><li>Improving the quality of sleep<\/li><\/ul><p> <\/p><h6>On the part of the company (based on the general objectives of the hospital&#8217;s internal OHM)<\/h6><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Reduction in absenteeism<\/li><li>Reduction of the error rate<\/li><li>Increasing motivation<\/li><li>Improving the care situation<\/li><li>Strengthening employer branding<\/li><li>Recruitment of skilled workers in particular. for the structural extension<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1993ac0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1993ac0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6f935ae elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6f935ae\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The \"COPEP\" project in shift work<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46e783a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"46e783a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-752c589 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"752c589\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Chronobiologist Prof. Dr. habil.

not least, by evaluating the blood tests, the clinic now has an overview of what makes some of its employees &#8220;tick&#8221;. For every project, this is the starting point for all further measures in shift work and traditional working hours. The graph on the right shows that the distribution is clearly grouped around a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wieden.com\/allgemein\/neuer-bluttest-kann-chronotyp-ermitteln\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DLMO<\/a> between 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. Such cumulation was to be expected. However, the late types are particularly interesting. Some employees have a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wieden.com\/allgemein\/neuer-bluttest-kann-chronotyp-ermitteln\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DLMO<\/a> of later than 01.00 hours. This means that their biological night takes place between 2.30 am and 10.30 am. There are even people in the test field whose biological after-effects will become apparent later. In this case, these are extreme late types that even have a biological night between<strong> 6.30 am and 2.30<\/strong> pm or<strong> 8.30 am and 4.30 pm<\/strong>. On the other hand, there are also extremely early types whose biological night sometimes begins at 4.30 pm and ends around 4.30 am. The biological night therefore does not necessarily coincide with the earthly night.<\/div><p>Thus, it can actually be shown that such extreme types can also be found in companies. These are important findings, particularly for the allocation of early and night shifts as part of shift work.<\/p><p>In addition to the measurable improvements, there are also general effects that have arisen simply due to the fact that the topic is being discussed intensively at various levels by the clinic management.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-171a2a0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"171a2a0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5914fd1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5914fd1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Raising awareness, also in the context of shift work<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f30716 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5f30716\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a27a83e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a27a83e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Up to now, improvements in shift work have primarily related to the type of rotation. What makes the employees themselves tick was predominantly irrelevant. The most important prerequisite is therefore the conviction of the company management. It was only by generating enthusiasm among decision-makers in advance for the opportunities that lie in this topic that it was possible to create awareness within the company and be able to embark on this first stage of the study. Both the participants and the decision-makers now see many things with completely different eyes.

The number of participants in this project was achieved through intensive information from us (aliamos GmbH), the BodyTime project group, the scientific director Prof. Kantermann, as well as the company&#8217;s internal project team. Considerate information is needed to attract people to undergo blood testing.
