Sleep Deprivation
![Page 3: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why is sleep important?
▪ Cognitive and physical performance
▪ Learning and memory
▪ Protection of immune system
▪ REM, sleep cell regeneration

Sleep and wake regulation
▪ Recommendation for adults is 7-9 hours of sleep
▪ On average adults receive less than 7 hours of sleep.

Resulting in billions of dollars in healthcare costs▪ Mostly due to undiagnosed/ untreated sleep
disorders
▪ Loss of sleep is linked to depression anxiety
▪ NSC: “Cost of Fatigue in the Workplace Fatigue is estimated to cost employers about $136 billion a year in health-related lost productivity, and more than 70 millionAmericans suffer from a sleep disorder.”

Increased Workplace Injuries
![Page 13: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Workplace Injuries
▪ Fatigued individuals are 70-80% more likely to be involved with accidents
▪ Twice as likely to die than those that do not
![Page 14: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
328,000 drowsy driving crashes occur annually
▪ A study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety . Found it is actually three times the number the police-reported.
▪ The same study found that 109,000 of those drowsy driving crashes resulted in an injury and about 6,400 were fatal.
![Page 15: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Economic toll of drowsy driving
▪ Beyond the human toll is the economic one. NHTSA estimates fatigue-related crashes of $109 billion dollars annually.

More money then Jeff Bezos?
▪ Fatigue is estimated to cost employers about $136 billion a year in health-related lost productivity
▪ Fatigue-related crashes of $109 billion dollars annually.
▪ $145 billion dollars combined….not as much as Jeff Bezos with $154 billion dollars.

Drowsy Driving
![Page 18: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Impacts of drowsy driving
▪ Driving while drowsy is similar to driving under influence of alcohol:
▪ Drivers’ reaction times, awareness of hazards and ability to sustain attention al
▪ Driving after going more than 20 hours without sleep is the equivalent of driving with a blood-alcohol concentration of 0.08% – the U.S. legal limit
▪ You are three times more likely to be in a car crash if you are fatigued

▪ Space Shuttle Challenger
▪ American Airline flight 1420

Nuclear accident at Three Mile island▪ Between the hours of 4 and 6 a.m. on March
28, 1979, shift workers at the Three Mile Island plant unit 2 reactor in Pennsylvania failed to recognize the loss of core coolant water resulting from a stuck valve.

Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster▪ The investigation also found that sleep
deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers to ignore the engineer’s advice: two of the top managers involved in the conference call had been awake for 23 hours straight at the time of the call, and they had slept for only three hours the previous day. Killing all 7 crew members minutes after takeoff.

American Airlines flight 1420▪ Distracted by rapidly deteriorating weather
conditions and fatigued by a long work day, the flight crew of American Airlines Flight 1420, which crashed at the Little Rock Airport in June 1999, forgot to turn on the automatic spoiler system that would have stopped the plane before it ran out of runway, federal investigators have concluded.

Flight 1420
▪ On 16 hours and on duty for about 13 hours. The Federal Aviation Administration has imposed an eight-hour limit for a pilot's flight time during a 24-hour period.

Fatigue related Auto crashes
▪ 100,000 auto crashes annually
▪ 1,550 result in death
▪ Difficulty falling asleep, 34% of motor vehicle deaths.
![Page 30: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Sleep Well, Be well campaign
▪ Projecthealthysleep.org
▪ Increase awareness of the importance of sleep
▪ 54,399 men and women 20 to 89 years of age
▪ 13 year follow up
▪ 277 Unintentional fatal injuries
▪ Including 169 deaths from falls
▪ 57 deaths from motor vehicle crashes

How to combat fatigue▪ Sleep study
▪ The NSC recommends that night shift employers should limit the number of consecutive night shifts a person can work. It would also help to allow for naps or rest breaks throughout each night shift. 60% of employers have no designated area for employees to rest. A 20-minute nap can help employees stay alert throughout their shift.
▪ Other options for employers to combat workplace fatigue include providing at least 12 hours of time off between shifts, limiting overtime requirements, and creating an environment where employees feel comfortable talking about fatigue and the safety concerns associated with it
![Page 32: DANGERS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION...The investigation also found that sleep deprivation, caused by a culture of overwork at NASA, played a critical role in the decision by the managers](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071214/6042417bca816f52de635111/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Fatigue and productivity
▪ While some employers might think they’ll profit from allowing their employees to work to the point of exhaustion, fatigue at work actually increases costly mistakes and safety hazards. Because fatigue increases costs, employers who manage workplace fatigue help the bottom line.
