Why would you want your boss to let you take a nap tomorrow?

Many of us will experience the effects of clocks when we return to work on Monday morning (April 1st).

If one less hour of sleep leaves you groggy and catch the third morning cup of coffee, you will not be alone.

It turns out that science is on your side – you can warn your boss if he accuses you of dozing at work.

Sleep experts say that sleep deprivation could mean that many of us only had four hours of kip on Sunday night (March 31), which means we have the right to sleep.

The mirror online has reported how losing an hour of sleep can be a loss for our well-being.

Every spring, British clocks advance, making us switch from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to British Time (BST).

Although this happens every year, the clock change always seems to catch us off guard.

Dr. Nerina Ramlakhan, who led the research for Silentnight bed makers and the University of Leeds, said the change in time could see some workers fall to four hours.

"The loss of an hour in bed is particularly detrimental to people who are already struggling to sleep, and recent research from Silentnight has shown that many Britons, including children, are dangerously sleep deprived," she said. declared.

"Unlike our ancestors, we are constantly surrounded by abnormal electronic light, whether it's light fixtures, computer screens, televisions or mobile phones.

"This constant exposure to artificial light can affect the quality of our sleep, and often, even when we think we have a long sleep, the quality of our sleep is poor and we wake up tired.

Last year, the sleep scientist said, "If you are part of the 25% of the nation that sleeps less than five hours a night, this change of date could make you lose up to four hours, which is a dangerously low amount.

"Bosses should consider letting the staff take a nap in the office – it can make a huge difference."

She added that a nap was to take place between 2pm and 4pm – but we should not have one later, as this could affect sleep later in the night.

There are also a host of health problems related to lack of sleep or poor sleep.

These include diabetes, depression and heart disease.
