Sexual disorders like erectile dysfunction are increasingly found in Indian BPO professionals. Leading sexologist Dr. Prakash Kothari feels so. Ask him the reason behind this and he tells you reasons like changes in food habits mostly at dead of nights (the shifts are called graveyard shifts, where dinner usually served at 3 in the morning) intake of more refined carbohydrates are the most prominent reasons.
Add to that, according to Dr. Kothari, stressful work environment and lack of time to relax.
Stressfull? Yes, certainly, there are some call centers exist like Vanguard which mostly have outbound sales projects. They ask a tele sales caller to make around 350 calls in an 8.30 hour night shift which includes one half an hour dinner and two 10 minutes tea/coffee/loo break.
