Abstract

Issues relating to changes in the working practice for doctors have generated discussion in recent years, particularly in relation to the implementation of the European Working Time Regulations (EWTR). The EWTR's implications concerning medical care have revolved around a perception of improved patient safety via a reduction in hours worked, with tired doctors receiving adequate rest. However, it seems that the evidence to support this is far from clear.
