Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS)

Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS) are structured approaches used by organizations, particularly in safety-sensitive industries like aviation and healthcare, to identify, manage, and mitigate fatigue-related risks. FRMS involves monitoring employee working hours, rest periods, and overall well-being to ensure that individuals are fit for duty. By combining scientific research, data analysis, and human factors, FRMS aims to create a safer work environment by preventing fatigue-related incidents, improving performance, and promoting worker health. Ultimately, it helps organizations make informed decisions about scheduling and workload to enhance safety and operational effectiveness.
