Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder and a significant contributor to fatigue-related performance impairment, a factor frequently identified in National Transportation Safety Board crash investigations. For motor carriers, untreated insomnia can increase crash/incident risk, diminish driver well-being and contribute to preventable errors and turnover. This webinar will help safety managers recognize the signs of insomnia, understand the medical evaluation process and build effective partnerships with medical examiners. Attendees will learn about evidence-based treatment options, including cognitive behavioral therapy, appropriate medication use and practical sleep strategies. They will leave with tools and resources to connect drivers with qualified sleep specialists and support healthier sleep across the fleet.
This webinar is part of the North American Fatigue Management Program’s (NAFMP) ongoing series about the challenges and opportunities to mitigate the risks of fatigue for commercial drivers.
