Abstract
Background and Objectives: Mental and physical fatigue of airport staff reduces their job standards and productive concentration. The objective of this study was to examine the sleep quality and its effect on cognitive failure and job performance among airport staffs.
Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, 200 staff of an airport were chosen by simple random sampling method. The data collecting tools were four questionnaires that comprised demographic characteristics, sleep quality, cognitive failures, and job performance. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and regression tests.
Results: Based on the findings, the mean total scores of the sleep quality, cognitive failures, and job performance were 6.78 ± 3.23, 65.22 ± 20.36 and 39.59 ± 5.59, respectively. The results showed that the mean score of sleep quality in the two areas of sleep latency (1.5 ± 0.82) and sleep duration (1.43 ± 1.05) was higher than other subscales. According to the findings, there was a significant inverse relationship between sleep quality score and cognitive failures score with job performance score (r = -0.195, P < 0.05), While the sleep quality score and cognitive failure score showed a positive and significant correlation (r = 0.389, P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The findings demonstrated a significant relationship between sleep quality and cognitive failure, so that with decreasing this factor, cognitive failure of airport staff also increased and the probability of the human error increased. Therefore, enhancing the sleep quality and comfort by providing ergonomic solutions the cognitive failure in staff and consequently job performance would be greatly prevented.
