ATC Fatigue Survey

Question Title

* 1. Where do you work?

Tower

ACC

Other

Question Title

* 2. Do you work in a 24-hour operation?

Yes

Question Title

* 3. Other than during a midnight shift, which break pattern do you feel best supports your ability to perform during a shift? (Assume that the break follows approximately 50-66% of time spent in position).

1 hour in position followed by a 30-minute break

1.5 hours in position followed by a 45-minute break

2 hours in position followed by a 1-hour break

2.5 hours in position followed by a 1.25-hour break

3 hours in position followed by a 1.5-hour break

3.5 hours or more in position followed by a 2-hour break

No preference

Question Title

* 4. Do your shifts ever extend beyond 10 hours?

Once per month (or less)

Approximately once every two weeks

Approximately once per week

Approximately twice per week

More than twice per week

Question Title

* 5. From a fatigue perspective, what is true for you when shifts are extended?

It is too fatiguing to have more than one shift per week extended

It is better to have extended shifts be consecutive with each other

It is better to have at least one un-extended shift between any two extended shifts in the same cycle

Extended shifts do not add to my fatigue

Question Title

* 6. From a fatigue perspective, which do you prefer?

Shorter days with less days off in between (6 on, 3 off - 8 hour days)

Longer days with more days off in between (4 on, 4 off - 9 and 1/2 hour days)

A balanced approach (5 on, 4 off - 8 and 3/4 hour days)

Question Title

* 7. Do you work midnight shifts? (For the purposes of this survey, a “midnight shift” refers to any shift that includes one hour or more within the Window of Circadian Low (WOCL) 0200 and 0600 local time.)

Yes
