Napping on the job
Why working from home during the pandemic changed our sleep patterns, and why some big companies in the West are now encouraging their employees to nap at work.
Deborah Weitzmann explores whether a quick nap break at work could make us all more productive.
We head to Beijing where an employee tells us about her lunchtime ritual of napping beside her colleagues, and we鈥檒l discover how the pandemic may have helped squash the stigma of sleeping in Western workplaces.
Kate Mulligan, the boss of RestSpace, a company that designs innovative spaces to help people nod off at work, shows us their sleep pods. Also, Dr Guy Meadows, co-founder and clinical director at Sleep School, tells us practice makes perfect when it comes to napping.
