Fatigue Management – Level 1

The AWCC Fatigue Management program is delivered with a holistic approach to safety focusing on the responsibilities of both the employer and employee alike. Having a clear understanding of the shared responsibility between management and workers is a key component to keeping workers safe while maintaining a high level of company productivity.

Companies committing to this sort of education for their workforce need to be recognised as safety leaders in their relevant fields. The impacts of Fatigue in the workplace are widely recognised and the impacts quite severe on a variety of levels.

This course is best suited when accompanied by the Chain of Responsibility (CoR) programs also available through AWCC.
