Fatigue Management Policy Some year's ago at a previous employer, we had technicians working out of town on a job that had to be completed between 5pm and 3am. It was the summer holidays and all accomodation was heavily booked. On several occasions, our techs found themselves finishing work at 3am but having to vacate the motel room at 10am. They ended up sleeping in the vehicle and expected to turn up for work in a fit state at 5pm. Management were aware of the situation but would do nothing due to project deadlines and penalty clauses. The offered use of an employee's caravan was declined because it wasn't "approved accomodation".
I'd be interested to see if anyone has a Policy covering this scenario and how would they go about enforcing it?
FYI the project still over-ran both costs and time.
