The literature has systematically linked workload to burnout (Lee &Ashforth, 1996) and medical errors. Studies have highlighted that extended work shifts expose medical professionals to burnout (Iskera-Golec, Folkard,& Morek, 1996) and serious medical errors (Rogers, Hwang, Scott, Aiken,& Dinges, 2004). Motivated by the desire to reduce medical errors, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education limited in 2003 the working hours for American junior doctors to 80 hours a week (ACGME,2003). Studies confirm the positive impact of these regulations. Residents were more likely to be involved in serious medical errors when they worked 24-hour shifts while the number of errors was reduced by 36% under the new regulations (Landrigan et. al., 2004).
