Quantifiable CC Fatigue

Pilots dont evacuate passengers..CC do
There are few recorded incidents where CC have had the opportunity to remove pax from an aircraft during an emergency.Most accidents are so catastrophic in nature that there is enormous loss of life and it is therefore almost impossible to ascertain fatigue as a cause.
Aviation requires proactivity and anticipation of circumstances that may lead to poor decisions made while fatigued.
A poor decision made a flight attendant while fatigued may lead to loss of life.
Prevent fatigue,prevent the poor decision,prevent loss of life.
If a flight attendant involved in an incident is found to have been fatigued then the said flight attendant may be found to be culpable.
If you have done the required fatigue course you will be aware that the self reporting of fatigue is mandatory.
Fatigued?
Dont report it?
Make a mistake?
You will be hung out to dry
It is about prevention
