FATIGUE is the number one accident risk factor for construction workers and requires better recognition by occupational health and safety managers, research at the University of Sydney has found. Margaret Chan’s PhD research focused on four high profile oil and gas Sino joint-venture construction projects in Mainland China, where she interviewed workers, managers and safety supervisors to establish perceived causes of workplace accidents. All three groups considered fatigue to be the most significant risk factor in workplace accidents at these sites.
