Abstract(s)
Occupational fatigue has been considered a major contribution to decreases in
well-being and performance in a variety of industries.
The objective of the chapter is to review the main issues associated with
occupational fatigue and to consider the implications for the globalized aviation
industry. Fatigue management in aviation has been associated with rostering
practices, countermeasures and the development of international regulations.
Recently research has proposed that prescriptive approaches should be
replaced with more proactive perspectives, a philosophy that underlies the
Fatigue Risk Management System (FRMS).
