Observational analysis reveals a connection between subjective workload and fatigue in flight crews, highlighting the impact of duty duration.
Introduction: Flight crew members who fly multiple sectors per duty are at risk of experiencing high levels of fatigue, which can compromise safety. Although it is known that subjective workload and fatigue are closely related, the relationship between these two constructs is not well understood. This study aims to investigate the relationship between subjective workload and fatigue during flight duties, taking into account the number of sectors flown. The influence of duty duration, previous workload, and demographic factors is determined as well.
