How is Fatigue Affecting Your Workforce?
S urely we’ve all felt a little tired from time to time, but according to
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 70%
of Americans report they get insufficient sleep. Did you ever think about
what this missed sleep is costing your organization? Sleep disorders are
common, but they often go undiagnosed and untreated. Reduced alertness
as a result of sleep deficiency or untreated sleep disorders contributes to:
• Missed days of work
• Diminished performance and lower workplace productivity
• Increased health care expenditures for illnesses and treatment of mul-
tiple conditions
• Workplace incidents and occupational injuries
