How the quality of sleep affects the stress level of IT employees in USA
Introduction
Insufficient sleep is regarded as a public health hazard. The previous researchers have
associated the lack of sleep to road carnages, industrial accidents, medical as well as
other occupational errors. (3) This study is therefore designed to highlight the extent
to which quality of sleep affects the stress level and performance of IT employees. It’s
believed that assisting employees to reduce sleep disruptions is one way of boosting
their job impact and hence improve the production quality. (5)
a. Collection of Data
The outcome of research work is largely dependent on the data collected and
analyzed. Prior to carrying out qualitative and quantitative data analysis, the data
sources need to be identified. Afterwards the data is collected and documented. The
stored data is later analyzed, and conclusions are driven based on research objectives.
i. Sources of Data
The focus of the research was to evaluate the impact of sleep on the IT
employees in the USA. The data was collected from the employees in the IT
field, psychology experts and CEO of IT companies in the USA. To narrow
down the data collection to the research level 4 IT companies were identified
at random across the country whose employees and CEO provided the data. In
addition, we identified 3 psychology experts who also assisted in data
provision.
ii. Data Collection
The table below was used as a guideline during the data collection process.
