New Release: Driving Fatigue Light Vehicle Toolbox Talk

Fatigue is a contributing factor in 20-30% of all crash-related fatalities and severe injuries on Australian roads [1].

Compared to 8 hours, the risk of crashing after 5 hours of sleep is 4.4 times more [4], and fatigue-related road incidents cost workers, families, and the Australian economy around $3 billion each year [5].

In most industries, a demand for excellence means greater output, increased profitability and extended around-the- clock working hours. However, working 24/7 can come at the expense of health and safety for workers. especially with an increased risk of work-related driving fatalities and serious injuries caused by fatigue.
