Fatigue, Fitness for Duty, and Welfare
Human factors that directly affect judgement and accident likelihood.
Explain how insufficient sleep, long hours, poor nutrition, dehydration, stress, illness, and alcohol or drug misuse affect safety performance. Use this lesson to show that people may not announce when they are no longer safe, so supervisors and operators must organise work to reduce fatigue-related failure.
