There are no direct cures for the most common fatigue problems. Taking a vacation, changing jobs or tasks, undertaking new activities or dealing with home-related issues may help. A balanced diet, a program of regular exercise (within prescribed limits), and adequate rest are generally recommended. Alleviating pain, which may interfere with rest, and nausea (if present), can often reduce chronic fatigue. Taking medication may make the condition worse when the drugs are discontinued.

The purpose of this section is to describe monitoring and control measures to prevent adverse health effect due to cold stress. This section applies to work being performed outdoors when ambient weather falls below 45 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cold stress will be evaluated based on a standard wind chill table, as described in the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Safety and Health Requirements (EM 385-1-1), Section 06.J.

When ambient temperatures fall below 45 ®F, the environmental monitoring of temperature will be performed twice each shift. When ambient temperatures fall below 30 °F, environmental monitoring of temperatures will be performed every 4 hours. Air speed will be recorded at the same frequencies as temperatures. The data will be used to evaluate risks based on the wind chill table referenced above. Temperature readings and subsequent evaluations of data will be collected from different work environments around the job site. These will include, by may not be limited to:
