Overview

  • The roadmap advises companies and schools to create quiet areas for 15–20-minute micro-naps under corporate social responsibility schemes.
  • A 'Quiet' label will highlight rest-friendly venues and new guidelines will standardize naptimes in preschools.
  • Public awareness campaigns will be expanded on the mangerbouger.fr website and through the Jardin Mental app.
  • Health and education professionals will receive enhanced training and tools to detect and address sleep disorders early.
  • The plan draws on INRS research showing 15–20-minute micro-naps immediately boost vigilance and reduce work and commute accident risks.
