Fatigue and workload risk assessment
Find where fatigue and long hours increase risk.
Fatigue reduces attention and judgement, and increases risk. This assessment looks at hours, shifts and rest, and shows where fatigue is most likely to lead to incidents.
Who it is for: Operations, HSE and HR leaders in shift-based work.
Area: HSE: Health, Safety and Environment
When to use it
- In shift, transport or field operations
- After incidents linked to tiredness
- Before changing rosters or shift patterns
What we measure
- We analyse working hours, overtime and shift patterns.
- We assess whether workers get enough rest between shifts.
- We review incidents and near misses for links to fatigue.
- We check the controls in place, such as breaks and supervision.
What you receive
- A view of fatigue risk by role, shift and site
- Links between fatigue and incidents
- Practical controls for rosters, breaks and supervision
