Abstract: The goal of this study is to evaluate an online, interactive training on fatigue management tailored to taxi drivers and other for-hire rideshare drivers. The proposed study is a longitudinal, randomized design comparing two interventions and a control over 5 study periods. One group of 60 drivers will receive both interventions: fatigue training and daily feedback on estimated fatigue score. A second group of 60 drivers will receive only the fatigue training. A third group of 60 drivers will receive neither intervention. All participating drivers will take a self-administered questionnaire, wear a wrist actigraph to measure sleep quality, complete a sleep and activities diary, and take a sleep health and driving knowledge assessment. Drivers taking the training will be asked to complete an evaluation. Findings will be used to improve the training program for potential future dissemination.
