Cut your SPAD Risk from Home

A study of 250 SPAD reports in 2016/17 revealed that fatigue, health and wellbeing were a problem in 25% of these incidents. Managing fatigue, health and wellbeing is a joint responsibility: you and your employer both play a part. Your employer has a responsibility to promote a ‘fair’ culture where you feel open to discuss and report concerns without fear. You might choose to make simple lifestyle changes to help manage your own personal fatigue, health and wellbeing – as these can be effective in reducing the likelihood of SPADs.
