Even if you enjoy your job and work long hours voluntarily, you’re simply more likely to make mistakes when you’re tired — and most of us tire more easily than we think we do. Only 1-3% of the population can sleep five or six hours a night without suffering some performance drop-off. Moreover, for every 100 people who think they’re a member of this sleepless elite, only five actually are. The research on the performance-destroying effects of sleeplessness alone should make everyone see the folly of the all-nighter.
No state or territory has met a federal government deadline to outline their plans for the return of international students in 2021 by the end of November, with three states yet to provide any indication of when they will be ready.
The NSW government, along with the ACT and NT governments, are expected to submit their plans to the Morrison government this week, while Victoria and SA will also miss the deadline but are working on their proposals.
Federal Education Minister Dan Tehan said on Monday that WA, Queensland and Tasmania were the only states yet to provide a timeline for their plans.
“I wrote to all states and territories asking them to submit their plan for international student arrivals by the end of November,” Mr Tehan said.
