How can fatigue be reduced? What are the different ways to reduce fatigue?

[rms]

The following measures may be adopted to avoid fatigue:
(i) Rest pauses should be introduced after certain hours of work. This will help the workers to regain the lost energy. The ratio between work and rest would depend upon the nature of job.
(ii) There should be proper lighting arrangements in the establishment. This will not cause any strain to the eyes because of poor lighting.
(iii) Comfortable working conditions, viz., temperature, humidity and ventilation should be provided.
(iv) Workers should be given proper training to reduce unnecessary fatigue.
(v) Workers should be required to undergo medical examination after every six months or one year.
(vi) There should be improvements in the equipment.
(vii) Time and motion studies should be conducted to eliminate unnecessary motions.
(viii) There should be arrangements for counselling the workers who are upset over certain personal matters. They should be helped to solve their problems.
