1. • • Altered sleep timing, food timing and light exposure typical for shift workers leads to an acute circadian disruption and misalignment of regulatory hormones. This straying from synchronisation has been shown to result in individuals being more vulnerable to a number of chronic health conditions.

   How does shift work affect new workers' sleep?

   • Consequently, this systematic review and meta-analysis aims to describe how shift work impacts new workers’ sleep, mental health, and physical health during the transition to shift work. Health and wellbeing outcomes like depression, anxiety, and sleep duration, are often used as indicators of SWT.

   Are shift work and insufficient sleep related?

   • Given that the health and safety consequences of shift work and insufficient sleep are very similar, they are likely to share common mechanisms. However, additional research is needed to determine whether insufficient sleep is a causal pathway for the adverse health effects associated with shift work.

   Does shift work affect mental health and sleep?

   • Our findings suggest preventative measures for mental health and sleep should be prioritised at the start of workers' career. Further analysis showed shift work impacted workers' sleep (p < 0.001) and mental health (p = 0.004) within the first three-to-four months of beginning shift work (Table S5).

   Does short sleep affect health outcomes with shift and night work?

   • The epidemiological link between short sleep (defined as four to seven hours of sleep a night) and the health outcomes that had elevated risks with shift and night work showed a high correspondence.

   How does shift work affect health and safety?

   • Laboratory studies indicate that cardiometabolic stress and cognitive impairments are increased by shift work, as well as by sleep loss. Given that the health and safety consequences of shift work and insufficient sleep are very similar, they are likely to share common mechanisms.

   Does shift work increase physical health outcomes?

   • Given this prior research, it is likely shift work increases physical health outcomes over extended periods of work, yet based on our findings, it is unlikely the changes in health (e.g., physiology, exercise, and diet) which precede these outcomes occur within the first two years of shift work.
