Some companies have nap rooms to allow employees to take power naps. This may be in a form of a nap room with a recliner, or chairs specially designed for power napping installed in a designated area. Companies with nap rooms say that employees are happier and become more productive at work.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Stump|first1=Scott|title='Nap rooms' encourage sleeping on the job to boost productivity|url=http://www.today.com/money/nap-rooms-encourage-sleeping-job-boost-productivity-1C8881304|access-date=23 February 2015|work=TODAY Money|date=15 March 2013}}</ref>

Similar nap rooms and stations also exist in [[higher education]] institutions. Many colleges and universities provide napping furnitures such as [[Camp bed|cots]] and [[bean bag chair|beanbag]]s in libraries for students to take naps after long periods of study. At least one university{{which|date=October 2017}} has a nap room set up in a [[gym]]. Some [[medical school]]s also set up nap rooms at [[teaching hospital]]s. The nap rooms may include [[sleeping pods]] or cots, [[white noise machine]]s, and antimicrobial pillows.<ref>{{cite magazine|last1=Waxman|first1=Olivia B.|title=Napping Around: Colleges Provide Campus Snooze Rooms|url=https://time.com/3211964/nap-rooms-at-universities/|access-date=23 February 2015|magazine=TIME|date=29 August 2014}}</ref>
