| description | As a developing country, Indonesia pursues advancement through rapid
infrastructure expansion. However, in the transportation sector, safety is
still a serious problem and requires attention. Road accidents in Indonesia
with a high fatality mostly involve intercity buses. Most of the accidents are
reportedly caused
by human error, typically caused by a fatigued driver. To understand the
factors that influence general fatigue (F), three variables—subjective workload
(WL), need for recovery (NR), and emotional intelligence (EI)—are discussed by
considering time on task and time of day as factors. To assess the perceptions
of 298 intercity bus drivers, this research was conducted using a
questionnaire. There are statistically significant differences in the NR (p = 0.001) and EI level (p = 0.001) among the time on task group (less than three hours,
three to five hours, and longer than five hours) but not for the WL. Meanwhile,
for the time of day group (driving in the morning, afternoon, and at night)
there are no significant differences of WL (p
= 0.161), NR (p = 0.795), and EI
level (p = 0.271). A Tukey post hoc test
revealed that the NR and is statistically significantly higher for a duration
longer than three hours (p = 0.025
and p = 0.000). Binomial logistic
regression was run to understand the influence of WL, NR, and EI on subjective
fatigue level, categorized into fatigue (1) and alert (0). The Hosmer–Lemeshow
test showed that the model fit the data well, p = 0.673. The variables NR (p
= 0.08) and EI (p = 0.020)
statistically significantly predict general fatigue subjectively. Based on
these results, EI and NR are suggested as factors that should be analyzed further
concerning the issue of fatigue-related accidents. Both factors should also be
considered in company’s fatigue management system. |
