About Shiftwork Services
Shiftwork Services has been dedicated to improving the lives of shift workers by helping them manage sleep since 1995. We’ve been helping businesses combat fatigue and promote shiftworker work/life balance while also addressing the business needs of their employers. Operating primarily in New Zealand, we work with organisations across a range of industries. These include transport, aviation, mining, hospitals, power companies, and telecommunications. We can help anywhere where fatigue is a concern and shiftworker well-being is a priority.
Our approach balances the practical needs of staff with the operational goals of businesses. We also collaborate with expert alliance partners, including InterDynamics and Integrated Safety Support, to deliver comprehensive solutions that prioritise both worker well-being and organisational efficiency.
