Shift work places unique demands on the human body.
While most organisations focus on operational training and fatigue policies, very few employees receive education on how to manage the biological impact of working outside traditional hours.
This training fills that gap.
Our Shift Work Ready Program builds circadian health literacy, giving employees the knowledge and tools to work with their body clocks rather than against them. They’ll learn practical strategies for sleep, energy, and alertness—things most workplaces never teach.
This isn’t about motivation—it’s about training the body for shift work, so your team performs better, feels better, and stays longer.

My name is Audra Starkey and I’m a clinically trained nutritionist, former Qantas trainer, author – and most importantly ex shift worker veteran – so I know how incredibly challenging it is to stay healthy whilst working irregular hours.
Over the years, I’ve been devouring all things to do with shift work health from a holistic perspective, which has led to the culmination of these purpose-built training resources and seminars for organisations who rely on shift workers. My training follows a Holistic Lifestyle Medicine Approach, you can learn more here.
Why Organisations Invest in Shift Work Readyâ„¢Programs
Supporting shift workers isn’t just good for employee wellbeing — it also benefits the entire organisation.
Companies that invest in shift worker education often see improvements in:
• Fatigue awareness and management
• Workplace safety
• Staff retention
• Absenteeism
• Employee engagement
• Long-term workforce sustainability
When employees understand how shift work affects their biology, they are far better equipped to manage the demands of their role.
Shift work readiness programs for organisations
Equipping your staff with strategies from Day 1
Shift Work Ready™ — 6-Part Framework
The 6-part program follows a practical roadmap that translates circadian science into simple, actionable strategies that shift workers can apply immediately to improve energy, recovery and long-term health.
UNDERSTAND – Know Your Body Clock:
Understand how working across a 24/7 roster affects alertness, sleep, energy and performance — and why different times of the day and night can feel so different.
PREPARE – Get Ready for the Shift Ahead:
Practical strategies around sleep, light, hydration and pre-shift routines to arrive better prepared for the demands of the shift.
PERFORM – Stay Alert When It Matters:
Learn how to strategically use caffeine, light, movement and breaks to support alertness and performance, particularly during the more challenging hours of the biological night.
FUEL – Eat for Your Roster:
Understand how meal timing and food choices can support sustained energy, digestion and metabolic health when working irregular hours and overnight.
RECOVER – Protect Your Recovery Between Shifts:
Practical strategies to transition from work to restorative sleep, improve daytime sleep and support better recovery between shifts.
APPLY – Build Your Personal Shift Work Readyâ„¢ Plan:
Employees identify the strategies most relevant to their own roster and create a simple personal action plan for what they’ll do before, during and after their shifts — turning the education into practical, everyday behaviours.
