Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Research has shown that employees who work rotating shifts generally have less and poorer quality sleep compared to those with set work schedules. This is due to the disruption of their natural sleep-wake cycle, which can lead to difficulty falling or staying asleep, reduced sleep duration, and increased daytime sleepiness.
