ABSTRACT On-call working arrangements have been shown to negatively impact sleep. However, workers may perceive their sleep to be worse than it actually is. The aim of this study was to compare participants' pre- and post-sleep estimates of sleep duration and sleep quality with objectively measured sleep when on-call under laboratory conditions.
