Winning the Fight Against Fatigue – One Company’s Journey (Room 29 AB)

20 Sep 22
3:15 PM - 4:15 PM

Tracks: Implementation and Operation

Fatigue is more than just being tired. It’s an impairment that creates a safety risk and negatively impacts employee well-being. Dow is developing a comprehensive approach to fatigue risk management. Five pilot studies were completed in 2021 and a full global implementation plan has begun in 2022. In this session, we’ll share stories from these pilots, the implementation framework, and challenges to address as we continue the journey to a safe and healthy workplace. You’ll learn about ways to incorporate fatigue risk within existing safety management systems, tools and technology that can be used to evaluate fatigue risk in the workplace, and change management to consider when planning and deploying across a range of operations.
