A Worker’s Fitness-for-Duty Status Identification Based on Biosignals to Reduce Human Error in Nuclear Power Plants

Human error has been highlighted as main cause of industrial and nuclear accidents. One of the key issues related to human error is a worker’s fitness for duty (FFD). FFD refers to the mental and physical ability of employees to safely perform their job. The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of identifying a worker’s FFD status using biosignals. The FFD statuses examined were with respect to alcohol use, depression,...
