In the world of transportation, fatigue is a silent killer that can
affect us all. Understanding fatigue, including how to manage it to
minimize safety risk, is of great importance. However, while it is
one thing to recognize that fatigue is a critical safety issue, it
is quite another to set up a successful, scientifically informed
fatigue risk management programme. This book is here to help. It
has been carefully designed as a comprehensive reference point,
bringing together international expertise from leaders in fatigue
science, and showcasing valuable insights from transportation
industry practitioners. The 40 authored chapters are divided into
six sections, to better understand fatigue science, the
consequences of fatigue in transportation, contributors to fatigue,
managing fatigue and promoting alertness, real world case studies
of fatigue management in practice, and future perspectives. While
it is possible to read each chapter in isolation, most will be
gained by reading the book as a whole. Each chapter starts with an
abstract overview and concludes with summary bullet points,
creating a handy "quick check" for key points. This accessible text
is for those who are interested in supporting alert and safe
transportation operations. It is suitable for professionals,
transport managers, government advisors, policy makers, students,
academics, and anyone who wants to learn more. All transport modes
(road, rail, maritime and aviation) are considered. For anyone
waking up to the complex challenge of fatigue management, this
handbook is a must.
