FTA Standards Development Program: Medical Fitness for Duty and Fatigue Risk Management
This research leveraged the findings and recommendations of the United States Department of Transportation (US DOT) research reports/guidance and research performed under the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) on fatigue risk management, hours of service for transit workers, route and personnel scheduling, medical examination certificates, testing for sleep disorders, and training. CUTR’s Transit Standards Working Group provided locally-based content to the background research, provided guidance and suggestions to the research team, and assisted in framing the final report and associated findings. CUTR identified gaps that may exist; current voluntary standards, recommended practices, or other forms of guidance that may need to be modified; or areas for which voluntary standards or other guidance should be developed.
