•
Education and training
• Scheduling
• Implementation of alertness management strategies
• Healthy sleep (to promote sleep wellness & address sleep
disorders)
• Scientific guidance on fatigue-related issues
The Air Transport
Association, an industry group that represents the major airlines,
recognized the need for an industry-wide effort to reduce fatigue-related
safety risks and enhance safety. Therefore, ATA took a proactive leadership
role in managing alertness in aviation with the introduction of its
Alertness Management Initiative. As the architects of the enterprise,
Alertness Solutions designed an Initiative that aimed to increase flight
deck alertness through strategies, scheduling, research, and airline-specific
Alertness Management Programs (AMPs).
NAV CANADA is
a private company that operates Canada’s highly respected civil
air navigation service, including air traffic control. Recognizing the
safety challenges posed by shiftwork and fatigue, NAV CANADA tapped
the expertise of Alertness Solutions to initiate an integrated Alertness
Management Program (AMP), which provided education and alertness strategies,
and addressed important scheduling issues.
Greyhound Lines,
Inc. is the largest provider of intercity bus transportation in
North America. Operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with 18,000
daily departures, Greyhound recognizes the challenges posed by round-the-clock
service. This industry safety leader continues to improve their fatigue
management programs by implementing state-of-the art educational and
scheduling activities for their personnel.
American Airlines
recognized the demands that global, round-the-clock operations place
on its personnel. Alertness Solutions developed and supported the implementation
of a tailored Alertness Management Program (AMP) for American Airlines,
which included education, strategies, scheduling, and healthy sleep
components. To keep up with its world-wide 24/7 workforce, the airline
delivered much of the AMP through the company intranet site, providing
personnel access to the information anywhere, anytime.
