摘要

Purpose of Review

Traditional approaches fatigue management based solely on working time restrictions have, over recent decades, been displaced by risk-based fatigue management practices. Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS) reflect a risk-based approach, whereby organisations assess and manage risks directly attributable to fatigue, rather than managing fatigue itself. Ideally, risk-based fatigue management can be aligned with international standards for risk management, thus positioning fatigue as a hazard—like any other – which can be identified, mitigated and managed so as to promote worker safety.

Recent Findings

This review outlines what we consider the critical elements of a FRMS and presents key information for organisations who may be developing their own FRMS. We focus on (1) identifying and assessing fatigue-related risk within a risk-based framework, (2) promoting the idea of working safely while fatigued, and (3) addressing common challenges faced by organisations when using a FRMS.

Summary

Risk-based approaches to fatigue management are increasingly common, and as such organisations need to understand both the opportunities and challenges associated with this type of system.
