  • Do you sometimes feel tired, forgetful and unable to concentrate while working? These are classic symptoms of fatigue.<\/li>
  • Fatigue is more than a temporary feeling of weariness or tiredness. It is a persistent lack of energy that does not go away when you rest.<\/li>
  • You can feel fatigued in both your body and mind.<\/li>
  • Physical fatigue can be felt as sore muscles and reduced ability to do your normal physical work.<\/li>
  • Fatigue can also be experienced in your mind. This can be psychological, with changes in your mood and cognitive impacts, where it is difficult to think.<\/li>
  • Fatigue is linked to reduced productivity and well as errors and omissions. This can lead to incidents resulting in work related illness and injury. It is a common root cause of major incidents and even fatalities.<\/li>
  • Night workers are particularly prone to fatigue as day sleep is often lighter, shorter and more easily disrupted due to daytime noise and a natural rhythm that make it harder to to sleep during daylight.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      • If you find that mental and\/or physical exhaustion is a problem for you, it is time to look at ways to prevent fatigue.<\/li>
      • You first need to figure out the cause of your fatigue, then determine an adequate solution.<\/li>
      • When fatigue is not relieved by enough sleep (most people need an average of 8 hours), good nutrition, regular movement \/ exercise, other rest and relaxation, you should discuss this with your doctor.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
