Worker fatigue could cost your business a lot more than you think. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), if you've got at least 1,000 employees, you can expect to lose more than $1 million a year due to fatigue.
What's worse is trying to combat this issue during a plant turnaround or shutdown project. However, there's a real answer to fixing worker fatigue during turnarounds: Give your crew a dedicated space to take on-shift breaks. With this solution, you'll reduce mental and physical fatigue — boosting your business as well as project outcomes.
Worker fatigue can reduce alertness and performance among your crew, as well as increase the number of accidents. Therefore, to reduce worker fatigue, it's important that your crew takes regular breaks during work periods to mitigate these issues. Doing so can help your personnel work more efficiently and reduce the risk of negative outcomes for your workers and operations.
