About FRMS
Fatigue Risk Management Solutions delivers solutions to assist with the management of fatigue in the workplace. We primarily work with companies that operate 24/7, but also those that have identified fatigue as being a key hazard, therefore meeting their obligation under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 (HSE Act) to take all responsible steps to mitigate the risk in their business.
