Insomnia can be costly when it comes to a loss of productivity.

Out of the 7,000 workers researchers studied, more than 20% reported symptoms of insomnia.

While many still went to work, experts say they accomplished less because they were tired.

The study’s lead researcher says he was shocked by the enormous impact insomnia has on the average person’s life, noting the disorder remains an “under-appreciated problem.”
