Guide to Identifying and Reducing Workforce Fatigue in Rapid Renewal Projects

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Report S2-R03-RR-2: Guide to Identifying and Reducing Workforce Fatigue in Rapid Renewal Projects is designed to help in the development and implementation of fatigue risk management in rapid renewal highway construction environments.

The guide includes organizational practices guidance, technical reference materials, fatigue training materials, and work scheduling aids and guidance. This suite of products may be integrated into existing safety management systems for highway construction environments, thereby reducing fatigue risk and increasing safety.

An e-book version of this guide is available for purchase at Amazon, Google, and iTunes.

The same project that developed Report S2-R03-RR-2 also produced a report titled Identifying and Reducing Workforce Fatigue in Rapid Renewal Projects that documents worker fatigue impacts during rapid renewal operations in the highway construction industry and describes development of the Fatigue Risk Management Guide for Rapid Renewal Highway Construction Projects.

In addition, SHRP 2 Renewal project R03 created two slide presentations on fatigue risk management—one for general highway workers and the other is for managers.
