Study Summary

Firefighters work some of the most demanding schedules known under highly stressful and demanding conditions. The need to work frequent extended shifts and long work weeks leads to acute and chronic partial sleep deprivation as well as misalignment of circadian phase. Sleep disorders are common, costly, and treatable, but often remain undiagnosed and untreated and it is likely that a significant proportion of firefighters suffer from undiagnosed sleep disorders which will further impair their sleep and exacerbate fatigue.In the current proposal, we aim to address the health, performance and safety issues related to fatigue in firefighters and test the effectiveness of a Comprehensive Firefighter Fatigue Management Program (CFFMP) that we have termed 'Operation Healthy Sleep.'

Primary Outcome

We assessed 'sick days' cumulatively over 12 months in two ways from departmental payroll records; the number of 24-hour pay periods coded as 'sick' time per firefighter and the number of 24-hr pay periods coded as injury and disability per firefighter. Fewer sick days is indicative of better health.
