Who came up with the law and time for noise including hard core shiputzim to continue until 11 pm. If anyone has to get up at 5am to prepare for work they get 6 hours to sleep although it will take time for their body to relax enough to sleep. Preventative health care and promoting health says we should have 8 hours of sleep a night.? That means the law essentially permits stealing 2 hours of sleep. Rambam says prevention is better than cure.? Surely in the Holy Land of Israel it should be possible to permit people to sleep enough to function effectively in the day. If not what is daylight saving for.? Presumably the country wants us to work so why not permit normal hours for sleep.?
Noise until 11 pm at night is a recipe for increasing health problems on many levels for all ages even unborn foetus, there are thousands of scientific articles that demonstrate the harmful effects of both noise pollution and insufficient?sleep.?
Yes I used to be an occupational therapist and yes adequate sleep is part of the role of occupational?therapy.? Since the law of the land interferes in my profession I am moving on to other things including raising awareness.? Anyone have any idea how to improve the right for sleep,? after all stealing sleep is theft and theft falls into the 7 Mitzvos Bnei Noah.
