A critical approach to fatigue risk factors in cockpit and cabin crew for the flight safety in aviation industry

Abstract

This paper aims to develop a critical approach to flight safety by assessing theoretical and empirical studies on fatigue risk factors in cockpit and cabin crew. This paper also builds a fundamental basis for managing fatigue risk factors in the aviation industry. The main contribution of the paper demonstrates the fact that primary and secondary fatigue risk factors in cockpit and cabin crew affect the level of job satisfaction, operational efficiency, and flight security.

The influence of Islamic emotional intelligence and work-life balance on organizational commitment mediated by burnout

“…The negative consequences of burnout on the individual can lead to undesirable conflicts and relationships in family life. According to Ozel & Hacioglu (2021) burnout affects not only the individual himself, but also the people around him and the organization he works for, and therefore the economy, social and cultural life of the country, is the most basic feature that needs to be taken seriously.

The influence of relationship conflict, employee turnover intention, and employee performance

“…Ozel and Hacioglu analysed the relationship between burnout and job satisfaction sub-dimensions with a target population of 254 international flight crew. Their study demonstrated that cockpit and cabin crews' job satisfaction and performance have been affected by stress and fatigue causing burnout (Ozel & Hacioglu, 2021a;Ozel & Hacioglu, 2021b). Burnout can be reduced by training employees with certain treatments such as skills training or programs for employees, so it can improve employee performance.…”
