Fatigue Management for Supervisors and Drivers

This course enables participants to complete the Supervisor Fatigue Program or the Driver Fatigue Program.

Driver fatigue is a major contributing factor to on-the-job vehicular accidents, absenteeism, and lowered productivity. Tired drivers can cost your company money–and even worse, lose their lives. This online course explains the nature of fatigue, the extent to which it can affect drivers, and strategies to mitigate and eliminate driving fatigue. The course consists of two separate modules–one for drivers, and one for people in a supervisory role–either of which can be selected at the start of the course.
