Outcome: reduced error, improved alertness, safer decision-making, sustainable performance.

Fatigue Management
Evidence-based strategies to help people think clearly, work safely, and perform sustainably.
Fatigue shows up long before anyone says “I’m tired.”
What It looks like:
-
More small mistakes creeping into work
-
Slower thinking and sluggish decision-making
-
Teams feeling mentally overloaded
-
Irritability, miscommunication, and conflict
-
Workers “coping” instead of performing
-
Safety shortcuts that were never intentional
-
Leaders noticing the right systems but the wrong behaviour
If any of these are showing up, your organisation is dealing with fatigue risk and this is exactly what I solve.
It’s a measurable human factors risk that impacts attention, decision-making, memory, behaviour, safety, and performance.
I specialise in designing fatigue management programmes rooted in psychology, human factors, and real-world organisational needs. My work has supported safety-critical environments, shift-based operations, emergency response teams, and leaders navigating high cognitive pressure.
This is practical, science-backed fatigue management.
What I Bring:
I combine human factors, behavioural science, and operational psychology to help organisations understand:
-
Cognitive Load – how pressure, complexity, and multitasking drain mental resources
-
Heuristics – how shortcuts, habits, and biased decision-making increase when people are fatigued
-
Behavioural Risks – how fatigue influences errors, reactions, communication, and judgement
-
Patterns – fatigue across shift cycles, seasonal patterns, emergency callouts, remote work, and high-pressure environments.
-
Performance Consequences – reaction time, accuracy, emotional regulation, and situational awareness
-
Organisational Influences – workload, environment, leadership behaviour, communication routes, and system design
It’s about understanding how Fatigue interacts with your people, your systems, and your performance expectations.
Are You Seeing These Patterns?
-
Teams struggle to concentrate in meetings
-
Workers report disrupted sleep or inconsistency
-
High cognitive load in decision-heavy roles
-
Reactive culture rather than proactive planning
-
Increased callbacks, rework, or near misses
-
Rising emotional strain or stress behaviours
-
Safety behaviours slipping during peak periods
If 2 or more of these feel familiar, your organisation is likely carrying hidden fatigue risk.
What I Do:
I analyse:
-
Workload Patterns
-
Shift Design
-
Cognitive Load
-
Error Trends
-
Environmental Factors
-
Behavioural Indicators
-
Leadership Expectations
-
Systemic Risks
This gives a clear, evidence-based understanding of where fatigue is happening and why.
Bespoke Fatigue Management Programmes
Programmes can include:
-
6–module training
-
Blended learning: face-to-face, online, narrated content
-
Train-the-trainer toolkits
-
Micro-learning modules
-
Assistive-technology accessible versions
Topics include:
-
How fatigue affects brain function

-
Cognitive overload & decision risk
-
Managing human error
-
Recovery & energy management
-
Real-world scenarios (tailored to industry)
Human Factors Workshops
-
Interactive sessions with:
-
Scenario-based decision challenges
-
Cognitive load simulations
-
Behavioural pattern reviews
-
Real case studies
-
Team reflection activities
I help teams understand, predict, and manage Fatigue.
Operational Tools & Frameworks
I design practical tools such as:
-
Decision risk matrices
-
Fatigue red/amber/green indicator
-
Steam briefing templates
-
Recovery planning tools
-
System checks & communication pathways
These help organisations embed fatigue management into everyday routines.
Fatigue management only works when it fits the culture so I evaluate impact, collect behavioural data, and refine tools so they become part of the organisation’s natural rhythm.
Who This Perfect For
Organisations where:
- Workers perform in high-risk, high-stakes environments
-
Decisions need to be fast, accurate and safe
-
Teams work shifts, nights or unpredictable schedules
-
Leaders notice near misses, miscommunication or inconsistency
-
People are mentally overloaded or emotionally exhausted
-
The environment is complex, technical, or high-pressure
What You Gain
Your organisation gets:
-
Sharper thinking under pressure
-
Fewer errors and safer decisions
-
Better communication when it matters most
-
More consistent performance across shifts
-
A workforce that recovers quicker and performs longer
-
Higher resilience and psychological safety
This is the business case for fatigue management.
Step 1 = Diagnose
Interviews, data review, cognitive load mapping, operational analysis.
Step 2 = Design
Training, frameworks, communication maps, behavioural tools.
Step 3 = Embed
Facilitated workshops, real-world scenarios, evaluation, refinement.
Why Work With Me
I have specialist expertise in:
-
human factors
-
cognitive load
-
behavioural analysis
-
fatigue risk
-
