How RosterRest Plans Around Fatigue

1. Sleep Anchoring: RosterRest works backward from shift start times, commute time, and your selected sleep goal.

2. Roster Flip Logic: The calculator looks at the gap between shifts before suggesting a reset sleep, nap, or normal recovery pattern.

3. Wind-Down Time: Plans allow for a practical buffer after work so you are not expected to fall asleep the moment a shift ends.

4. Sleep Pressure: RosterRest highlights periods where tiredness is more likely to build, especially around night work and short turnarounds.

5. Caffeine Cutoff: Caffeine can remain active for several hours, so RosterRest gives a practical cutoff before planned sleep.
