Description
Summary:The study focused on examining the work schedule and its effects on general well-being, social interaction within the workplace, and stress level of day-shift and night-shift call center employees. There were 200 participants for the quantitative approach. Results show that night-shift employees have lower general well-being as compared to day shift-employees. Also, anxiety was found to be higher for day-shift employees. On the other hand, two Focus Group Discussions (FGD) for the day-shift and three FGDs for the night-shift were conducted. The data gathered from the FGDs were classified into themes which were then categorized into three aspects of well-being, namely, physiological, emotional and social. Another theme that emerged under well-being was financial.
