FAQ

Do I need a workplace Fatigue Management Policy and Procedure?

A workplace Fatigue Management Policy and Procedure is essential to ensure a safe, healthy, productive, and legally compliant workplace. With such a policy, organisations and senior leaders can:

• demonstrate a commitment to protecting and promoting the physical and mental health of their workers
• proactively manage risks associated with fatigue
• protect workers and visitors from potential harm, and
• reduce the likelihood of incidents, injuries, and errors.

This policy and procedure bundle supports a positive workplace culture by demonstrating a wider commitment to employee health, wellbeing and safety; provides the processes for implementing that commitment, and aligns to legal obligations under Australian work health and safety laws (including the soon to be released model Managing Fatigue Risks at Work Code of Practice). Clear guidelines on expectations and obligations regarding fatigue can help businesses effectively manage psychosocial hazards, prevent issues before they arise, maintain high performance standards, and promote a safer, healthier, and more responsible work environment.

How do I implement my new Fatigue Management Policy and Procedure?

Once you've downloaded your new Fatigue Management Policy and Procedure templates, you'll need to consult with your workforce to tailor the content to your organisation. Under Australian law, employers are required to involve workers in all health and safety matters, including the development and modification of policies and procedures that affect them. Engaging with employees ensures that the documents reflect the unique risks and needs of your workers and workplace and fosters a sense of ownership. This collaborative approach not only aligns with legal obligations, but also strengthens your organisations safety culture and the policy’s effectiveness, as it is more likely to be understood, accepted, and adhered to by everyone at your workplace. You will also need to review and consider working hours, roster arrangements, commute times, work scheduling and all other elements of your organisations work design that may potentially contribute to workplace fatigue.
