A field investigation to examine the fatigue levels in industrial workers working extended (10, 12 and 12.5 h) shifts under significant levels of thermal stress was conducted on 45 male underground miners. Studies were conducted both before and after a major change to the working-in-heat protocol used at the operation. Prior to the change, shortened (6 h) shifts had been used when thermal condi...
