Investigating Human Fatigue Factors

This course will provide participants with information and guidance to evaluate the role human fatigue plays in an accident sequence, including whether it was causal or contributing. It will cover fatigue-related issues at the individual, medical, operational and environmental levels, and discuss how these issues affect human performance, alertness and safety. The course will also examine the types of information that should be collected during an investigation. Case studies and hands-on exercises will demonstrate the concepts discussed in the classroom.
