Abstract

Women in India are regarded as one of the country's most valuable resources. Working women of India are characterized by growth and development, but they are vulnerable often by several factors which affect their health and safety. The health problems of women working on Nightshift is one of the major areas that need urgent attention from public health professionals and policymakers. Overweight and obesity, cardiovascular problems, diabetes, sleep disorders, stress, depression, anxiety, and injuries specifically affect this population and have a long-lasting impact. Not just physical and mental health, but these women are burdened with social problems too. All of these factors have the potential to constitute a burden on Indian society in terms of morbidity, death, disability, and socioeconomic losses. Health promotion policies and programs that are focused on the women working on the night shift is critical for the country's general growth and development.
