Fatigue

Many of the reps attending the workshop on fatigue knew all about the problem in their workplaces.  Long shifts, permanent night shifts, unfriendly rosters and being on call - all contributors to fatigue.

The speakers were:

  • Michael Nealer, OHS Officer with the Transport Workers Union (TWU)
  • Andrew Eastick, TNT
  • Andrea Shaw, Director, Shaw Idea 
  • Elizabeth Kilduff, Manager, Strategic Programs Branch VWA
