Fatigue risk management systems: a review of the literature
Work-related road safety is one of the key areas of concern and driver fatigue is a particularly prevalent cause of work-related road traffic collisions (RTCs) resulting in injury or death. As part of the Department for Transport's continuing efforts to improve work-related road safety, Clockwork Research has been commissioned to research Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS), a relatively new and potentially advantageous method for managing the risk posed by commercial driver fatigue. An FRMS is a Safety Management System (SMS), or part of an SMS, which manages fatigue in a comprehensive and systematic manner using formal risk-based processes. The first part of the project, reported in this publication, constitutes a review of the academic papers and other relevant literature available on FRMS, including industry reports and regulatory guidance. Part two of the project, reported separately, will involve interviewing regulators, operators and researchers with experience of FRMS in order to learn firsthand about the advantages and disadvantages of FRMS.
