Half of Canadians struggle with Daylight Saving Time
Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday when most Canadians will move their clocks forward one hour, losing an hour of sleep.
Sleep Country Canada is launching the “Hour Back pledge”, acknowledging the potential setback to Canadians’ health and well-being, and to inspire them to proactively regulate their sleep habits during Daylight Saving Time.
As part of the pledge, Sleep Country is dedicating the lost hour to its employees, by opening all retail stores, Distribution Centres and offices at each of their Brands across Canada an hour later than usual on Monday, March 11th, allowing employees to reclaim their lost sleep.
A recent survey reveals that 1 in 2 Canadians experience disruption to their sleep schedule when the clocks move forward for Daylight Saving Time causing stress, confusion and silly mistakes, with over 50 per cent needing over a week to cope with the loss of an hour of sleep.
