Fatigue is an undeniable factor in the workplace, and it doesn’t just affect you or your team’s work performance levels.
Fatigue takes a toll on every aspect of life while at work, including the commute. The consequences of fatigue related errors, injuries and accidents can be catastrophic.
Reducing or removing the amount of fatigue you and your workplace may be experiencing is achievable and can save lives.
