Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia: Can we make it work for shift work?

Insomnia disorder affects 10–20% of individuals across the adult lifespan [[1], [2], [3]] and for many, persists over time. For adults living with insomnia, this often means managing chronic insomnia symptoms in addition to occupational demands across their working life. Adverse consequences for productivity [4,5] and both workplace and road safety [6,7] highlight the importance of effectively managing this prevalent sleep disorder. In this issue, Takano and colleagues [8] consider the effectiveness of first line insomnia treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTi), in samples of working-age adults.
