Description

The National Policing Wellbeing Survey 2019, highlighted issues around police officer and police staff fatigue, along with negative impacts of shift working in police forces in England and Wales.
The College of Policing (The Authority) on behalf of NPWS have funding available in order to further knowledge and understanding of fatigue and shift working in policing.

A pilot study has recently been conducted in relation to the promotion of fatigue management and sleep health.
However, continued research is necessary to guide nationwide implementation of fatigue-management and sleep health promotion programs.
The College of Policing (The Authority) on behalf of NPWS are now looking for a partner to work with to extend this study within Home Office police forces in England and Wales. The data collected will form the basis of Fatigue Risk Management Guidance in Home Office police forces.
