Fatigue
Fatigue at work is a significant concern that can affect both productivity and safety. It occurs when employees experience mental or physical tiredness due to factors like long work hours, insufficient rest, or demanding tasks. Fatigue can impair concentration, reaction times, and decision-making abilities, increasing the risk of accidents and injuries in various industries, from healthcare to manufacturing. Employers can mitigate fatigue by promoting work-life balance, scheduling regular breaks, and implementing fatigue management programs that educate workers on the importance of adequate sleep and healthy lifestyle habits. Recognizing the signs of fatigue early and encouraging open communication about workload concerns are crucial steps in creating a safer and more productive workplace environment.
