OSHA to Present at “Work, Stress and Health” Conference

The concept of fatigue as an injury risk in the workplace is a familiar topic to risk managers in many different industries. Indisputably, when employees attempt to perform their duties while suffering from the tired and unfocused feeling that is associated with a lack of rest the chance of an accident occurring is significantly elevated. This is especially true when workers are asked to interact with machinery which requires a high level of engagement in order to safely operate, such as a vehicle, saw or welding equipment.
