In the workplace, we often consider fatigue (or a lack of energy) the result of poor personal choices, such as unhealthy diet, lack of exercise or placing low priority on sleep; or as a result of poor character, like laziness, lack of motivation or apathy. However, the most common causes of worker fatigue are more closely associated with individuals physiology, rather than their choices. This seminar will explain the causes of fatigue, the impacts that it has on the workplace and the role fatigue mitigating technologies and change management play in the broader fatigue risk management system.
