Workplaces across industries continue to seek innovative solutions to the ongoing fatigue problem among workers, an issue that contributes to billions of dollars in overhead costs for employers across the country and around the world. Caused by a range of factors including rest patterns, scheduling and rostering tactics, consecutive shift work, and high levels of exertion during shifts, fatigue costs employers between $1,200 and $3,100 per employee per year. For an enterprise with 1,000 employees, that amounts to a loss of $1.4 million per year or more.
