Fatigue is a recognised risk factor for drivers involved in highways and construction work. Kali Solutions highlights that managing sleep is a critical safety measure, not an optional comfort.
Understanding driver fatigue
Extended driving hours and shift work patterns contribute to physical and cognitive tiredness. This can impair attention, reaction times and decision-making on site and on the road.
How rest breaks work
Kali Solutions provides strategies for scheduling mandatory rest periods. These include short naps and adequate sleep between shifts, supported by monitoring tools that encourage compliance.
Where this fits on site
On highways projects, drivers of HGVs, mobile plant and workforce transport benefit most. Structured breaks fit within project timeframes without disrupting workflow.
Impact on safety and operations
Reducing fatigue helps prevent accidents and errors. It also supports worker wellbeing, potentially lowering absenteeism and improving focus during critical tasks.
