    (Institute of Policy Studies of Sri Lanka, 2020-07) Arunatilake, Nisha ; Abayasekara, Ashani ; Karunanayake, Chathurga ; Fernando, Dulini
    This study examines Sri Lankan women's experiences of work and night shifts in nursing homes and supermarkets. The study is based on a sample of 30 associate professional and semi-skilled women pursuing jobs as nursing home workers, care workers, pharmacy dispensers, customer service assistants, cashiers and sales assistants. The views of the workers were triangulated with views from their direct supervisors (i.e., matrons, chief pharmacists and supervisors). Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with all respondents.
