Roadmap to Workplace Impairment Testing
All people are susceptible to the effects of fatigue and other types of cognitive impairment such as intoxication, illness, and even emotional distress. The risks they pose to safety and productivity are present in any workforce, increasing employees’ risk of injuries and illnesses. Employees who experience fatigue, such as those who work at night, have extended shifts, or who work irregular shifts are at the most risk. Surveys show that 62% of night shift workers claim to get insufficient sleep, and accident and injury rates during night shifts are 30% higher than during the day. The National Safety Council estimates that fatigue costs employers $136 billion every year in lost productivity.
