Fatigue Through Nightshifts Fatigue Through Nightshifts in Successionin Succession
Joint Coal Board Health and Safety Trust’s research priority on fatigue and
stress.

Focus on Rosters and Shifts
Debate on length of shifts (8 Vs 12)
Focus on length of rosters
Considerable argument over roster pattern

Research Questions to Answer
1 What is the most important contributor to acute fatigue in open cut mining? Is it length of shift (eg. 8 hours Vs 12 hours) or is it time of day (eg. circadian effects)?
2 What is the limit of successive night shifts before chronic fatigue affects
operator performance in open cut mines?

Methodology
Funded by Coal Services
Open cut mine selected
8 haul trucks fitted with ARRB FMD
Testing for slow reactions to stimuli
![Page 5: Fatigue Through Nightshifts in Succession Joint Coal Board Health and Safety Trust’s research priority on fatigue and stress. Nick Mabbott ARRB Transport.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070308/551bcd9d550346c3588b5273/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Methodology
24 drivers being tested for 10+ weeks (17 male & 7 female)
14 N, 1 off, 13 D, 7 off roster (12-hours)
Collecting real-time performance data

1 What is the most important contributor to acute fatigue in open cut mining?
If the length of shift is the major issue, we should see lowered performance toward the end of the shift
If it is circadian effects, we should see lowered performance during the circadian low points (0000 hrs to 0500/0600 hrs

So What’s the Answer to Q1???
What is the most important contributor to acute fatigue in open cut mining? Is it length of shift (eg. 8 hours Vs 12 hours) or is it time of day (eg. circadian effects)?
The data shows that: There appears to be no length of shift effect. The circadian influence is very strong, however, it
does not match sleep or crash data.

2 What is the limit of successive night shifts before chronic fatigue affects operator
performance in open cut mines?
Is there a cut-off point where safety is compromised by fatigue as measured by operator performance?

2 What is the limit of successive night shifts before chronic fatigue affects operator
performance in open cut mines? Any takers? Data suggests that some nights are
worse (performance-wise) than other nights 2, 7, 13 & 14
Sunday & Tuesday nights are bad Circadian effects present Hard to determine cut-off point as night 2
& 7 are worse than all <12

What should we do about this?
Direct more attention to individual selection (53% obese).
Observe patterns of high and low performance and try different countermeasures.
Promote a culture where your drivers are willing to admit they are tired & in need of a break.

More to Come...
Data will be built up more over time - will be able to test rosters against each other for performance.
Results may change the way we discuss what is best for operators (eg. FRQ and a higher individual focus).
