Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Health - Stress management, grade: A+, , language: English, abstract: This paper evaluates the fatigue management program for airport workers in New Zealand. Airports, like hospitals, never close, and, as such, healthcare providers and aviation professionals operate under a distinctive but shared set of circumstances. As a result, long and intensive shifts are common, sleep deprivation and fatigue are widespread. Fatigue is an unavoidable consequence of modern airline operations due to shift work and crew duties which invariably are associated with some sleep disruption. There is a large variation between individuals in their ability to cope with sleep disruption and jet lag. In section sixteen, the Health and Safety Work Act 2015 (HSWA) recognises fatigue as a hazard implying that the Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU) must manage it. For the civil aviation system, the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) has set the fundamental standards for fatigue risk management (FRM). Nationally, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is the workplace health and safety regulator under HSWA.
