Book excerpt: As part of its mission to improve the safety of maritime operations, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has undertaken a multi-year research program to establish a technical basis for maritime operational practice and regulatory guidance in work-rest scheduling and work hour limitations. Numerous studies across various modes of transportation show fatigue to be an underlying factor in a significant percentage of accidents; further, many of the accidents appear to be a result of sleep disruption based on work schedule requirements. The current phase of the program is concerned with the following: (1) identify the nature and extent of sleep disruption-induced fatigue in the commercial maritime industry, and (2) identify the impact of watch duration on personnel fatigue. One hundred forty-one mariners from eight commercial ships (6 tankers and 2 freighters) provided data regarding their work and sleep patterns, as well as a variety of other data pertinent to fatigue. The results show that there is a fatigue problem in the U.S. maritime industry, and by implication, internationally. The incidence of critical fatigue indicators such as severely restricted sleep durations per 24-hour period, very rapid sleep onset times, and critically low alertness levels suggest that fatigue regularly occurs. The results point to sleep disruption, reduced time between watches, fragmented sleep, and long workdays as principal contributors to the problem. Several courses of action for fatigue reduction are discussed: (1) work and rest period guidelines and policy, (2) government-industry educational programs, and (3) design and evaluation of alternative work-rest schedules.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1980s, the National Transportation Safety Board investigated several aviation, highway, and marine accidents that involved operator fatigue. Following completion of these investigations, the Safety Board in 1989 issued three recommendations to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) addressing needed research, education, and revisions to hours-of-service regulations. In the 10 years that have passed, the Safety Board has issued more than 70 additional recommendations to the DOT, States, industry, and industry associations to reduce the incidence of fatigue-related accidents. In response to the three 1989 recommendations, the DOT and the modal administrations have, in general, acted and responded positively to those addressing research and education; little action, however, has occurred with respect to revising the hours-of-service regulations. Nevertheless, the Safety Board believes that support has grown in recent years to make substantive changes to these regulations. This report provides an update on the activities and efforts by the DOT and the modal administrations to address operator fatigue and, consequently, the progress that has been made in the past 10 years to implement the actions called for in the three intermodal recommendations and other fatigue-related recommendations. The report also provides some background information on current hours-of-service regulations, fatigue, and the effects of fatigue on transportation safety. As a result of this safety report, the National Transportation Safety Board issued new safety recommendations to the U.S. Department of Transportation, the Federal Aviation Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Railroad Administration, the Research and Special Programs Administration, and the United States Coast Guard. The Safety Board also reiterated two recommendations to the Federal Aviation Administration.
