The Science of Sleep: Mitigating the Impact of Shift Work (November 27)


Does your work involve rotating schedules, night shifts or long hours? Our jobs demand a lot, so our bodies need quality rest to stay healthy, focused, and safe. The Thunder Bay District Health Unit (TBDHU) invites you to a free webinar for all employees and workplace leaders (formal and informal) across the Thunder Bay District on The Science of Sleep and Mitigating the Impact of Shift Work.

Learn about:

  • the importance of sleep;
  • how shift work impacts health;
  • how the health risks of irregular sleep can be reduced; and
  • how workplace leaders can support workers to get the sleep they need.

The webinar will take place on Thursday, November 27, 2025 from 10:30 a.m. – Noon. It will be hosted by the Thunder Bay District Health Unit and presented by Dr. Sandra Dorman, Director and Professor from the Centre for Research in Occupational Safety and Health (CROSH).

The recorded session will be offered over Zoom and the link to the recording will be shared with all registered participants afterwards.
