Abstract
Today’s world is changing dramatically due to the influence of various factors. Whether due to the rapid development of technological tools, advances in telecommunication methods, global economic and social events, or other reasons, almost everything is changing. As a result, the concepts of a “job” or work have changed as well, with new work shifts being introduced and the office no longer being the only place where work is done. In addition, our non-stop active society has increased the stress and pressure at work, causing fatigue to spread worldwide and becoming a global problem. Moreover, it is medically proven that persistent fatigue is a cause of serious diseases and health problems. Therefore, monitoring and detecting fatigue in the workplace is essential to improve worker safety in the long term. In this paper, we provide an overview of the use of smart wearable devices to monitor and detect occupational physical fatigue. In addition, we present and discuss the challenges that hinder this field and highlight what can be done to advance the use of smart wearables in workplace fatigue detection.
