New Website for Commercial Driver Fatigue Management

The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) has announced the launch of the North American Fatigue Management Program website, www.NAFMP.com, designed to provide a comprehensive approach to commercial driver fatigue management.

It will include:

• Online fatigue management training for drivers, drivers’ families, carrier executives and managers, dispatchers and shippers/receivers;
• Information on how to develop a corporate culture that facilitates reduced driver fatigue;
• Information on sleep disorders screening and treatment;Driver and trip scheduling information; and
• Information on Fatigue Management Technologies.

The NAFMP website also includes a Return-on-Investment calculator that allows motor carriers to estimate the cost-benefit of deploying the NAFMP in its entirety or select components in a customized program.

All of the NAFMP information and training is available on the website free of charge for interested parties.

“It is rewarding to see ATRI’s 10-year involvement in the research and development of the NAFMP come to fruition,” commented ATRI President Rebecca Brewster. “The NAFMP website will be a one-stop shop for carriers of all sizes to address the important issue of driver fatigue.”
