Insidious Safety Threat of Fatigue: Investigating Construction Workers’ Risk of Accident Due to Fatigue
This was really interesting. It studied the impact of self-assessed fatigue on hazard recognition and safety risk perception in construction. Fatigue is a ubiquitous phenomenon and among construction workers is said to be no different. It’s been implicated in a range of safety and performance implications. 135 construction workers were recruited to participate in the… Continue reading Insidious Safety Threat of Fatigue: Investigating Construction Workers’ Risk of Accident Due to Fatigue
