Shift work under the stillness of night has never been easy for security guards. Drowsiness always negatively impacts the worker’s energy and ability to focus
When the lights on the street gradually shut off, it is time for security workers to start the night shift. Stemming from organizations and residents’ security needs to manage and protect assets throughout the day, night guards have been in demand at industrial parks, manufacturing plants, apartments or night entertainment establishments.
Unlike the excitement and bustle of the city during the day, the scene at night is quiet and scarce of passersby. It also contain many risks such as property theft, fire, explosion… To avoid these unnecessary risks from occurring, night guards play an extremely important role at this time.
Moving from his hometown to Hanoi to work, Mr. Phan Van Dung has been a security guard for nearly a year. “When I was living in the in the countryside, my main job was farming. I farmed 2-3 crops a year but field work was quite hard due to harsh sun and wind. My income was not enough to cover my living. This job in security is both fated and an opportunity for me to improve my family’s income and to accumulate some capital in the future to return home to do business.”
Sharing more about his job, Mr. Dung said: “It’s not as hard as farming, but the security job also has its own difficulties. It involves property and human lives, so only those who do this job will understand the pressure during each shift, especially the night shifts.”
As always, the clock struck 11pm, Mr. Dung was at the condominium, ready to clock in the next shift. His night shift usually starts at 12 midnight and ends at 8 am.
“I was introduced by an acquaintance to work as a security guard on the night shift at an apartment building. At first, I felt quite sleepy because the space at night was so quiet and I was not used to changing my daily routine. When the drowsiness comes, I often stand up to check around the building or wash my face. I don’t dare to be negligent. But really, this method only temporarily helps to fend off the drowsiness for about 2-3 hours,” the male security guard shared.
Recalling the early days of his career, night shifts were always an daunting thought for Mr. Dung as well as many other colleagues. Staying awake for 8 hours through the night, maintaining constant alertness and concentration has never been easy. Especially when drowsiness is always a threat to knock them out at any point.
“At the beginning of the night shifts, I wanted to give up. But thinking about my family, thinking about my two growing children, I was determined to find a way to overcome it. I try many ways to help maintain my alertness and focus during the night shifts. It was Number 1 energy drink that helped me get through such a difficult period,” Mr. Dung confided.
Elaborating further on this, Mr. Dung excitedly shared: “Once on duty at night, my colleague gave me a bottle of energy drink to try after struggling over and over again with persistent drowsiness. I was quite surprised because this drink has a very smooth flavour. It especially brought an immediate feeling of refreshment and alertness. Since then, I carry a bottle in my pocket during every night shift to overcome the feeling of drowsiness and maintain maximum concentration on work.”
Not only the in security jobs, most jobs which operate at night cause many difficulties for workers. Drowsiness and loss of concentration makes it especially challenging when the body has to constantly adjust the circadian rhythm. This will directly affect the health and work efficiency of workers.
For occupations with specific night time requirement like Mr. Dung, workers need to pay attention to their health and look for solutions to quickly recharge their energy and alertness to ensure concentration throughout their work. Among these solutions, Number 1 energy drink is a solution chosen by many workers today.
Hard work, difficulties and challenges at work are unavoidable, no matter in any profession or field. It is important that each person knows how to take advantage of solutions to effectively supplement energy and maintain alertness, thereby increasing concentration while working and ensuring maximum labour efficiency. Number 1 energy drink is always a willing companion to energize each individual to become the best version of themselves at work.
Number 1 energy drink is a familiar drink to Vietnamese consumers. With more than two decades on the market, the product has always maintained a solid position in the energy drink category. The fondness that workers have for Number 1 not only comes from the delicious taste and refreshing feeling but also from its ability to energize, regain alertness and hence, helps to boost work efficiency.
At 3 a.m., when everyone was fast asleep, Mr. Dung was still diligently checking security around the building. For him, responsibility at work always comes first. With a bottle of Number 1 energy drink by his side, his face was still full of energy, showing no signs of fatigue or lethargy even though he had been up all night.
“Every job has its own joy and difficulties. For me, having good health and being able to do honest work means happiness. So when I work, I must work with all of my sense of responsibility and strength.” Mr. Phan Van Dung shared.
