Why do accidents occur more often at night and on holidays?

Not all of them, right? Work discipline is poor at night, and fewer people are on duty.

At this point, everyone relaxes; with the leader not around, they are no longer so serious. . . . .

I think the main points are as follows: 1. There are quite a few managers in the company on regular days, so everyone is under a lot of stress while working; they’re extremely focused, fearing that mistakes might be made and noticed by the managers. As a result, people generally follow the rules and procedures in their work； But during holidays or at night, the managers are reluctant to carry out inspections; even if there is a manager on duty, the inspection is merely symbolic. Over time, oversight at night becomes less thorough compared to during regular working hours. 2. From the perspective of the human biological clock, people are naturally meant to rest at night; no matter how good it is to rest during the day, at a certain time at night, their ability to move and think slows down, and they may experience a state of confusion. This makes it easy to make mistakes when performing various tasks. 3. From a lighting perspective, no lighting system can compare to natural daylight during the day; lighting will result in shaded areas or regions with insufficient illumination. If the working surface happens to be in such an area or if there are issues with the lighting, then hazards already exist, and an accident is only a matter of time. 4. In terms of people’s safety awareness, after the above three situations occur, employees will come up with various excuses at night, become lax in their attitude, and are prone to problems. 5. In terms of people’s unsafe behaviors, for example, work permits are required during the day, but at night, due to the absence of supervisors and safety officers, and when the work is urgent, people proceed with it right away, which can lead to problems ； At the same time, considering that some illegal operations will be carried out even if no one is checking, this lays the groundwork for accidents. 6. From a management perspective, there is less oversight by supervisors at night; although the system of having supervisors on duty at night is emphasized, few companies actually implement it effectively. Therefore, I believe that with all the above factors, when two or more of them coincide by chance, an accident occurs naturally as a result. (Personal opinion)

Tired at night, excited during holidays; the problem is that when the manager isn’t around, work standards drop and people engage in illegal practices...

That’s right; during the day, when there is good lighting, some leaks can be seen. At night, with poor visibility, smaller leaks are not easily detected, which creates safety hazards and may eventually lead to accidents.

Night vision is an objective reality that cannot be changed; therefore, driving at night is generally not possible. Carelessness, habitual violation of rules, and an inertial mindset that follows orders blindly are all major threats!

Accidents often occur at night and on holidays; is there a causal relationship or is it just a coincidence? With fewer people around, attention is not as focused

After saying so much, haha~ How about having the person in charge work at night while the deputy works during the day? Would that work?

To be honest, leaders have a lot on their plates during the day – dealing with inspections from the city, as well as those from the province. We once had to deal with two inspections related to safety and environmental protection within one week, and it was so stressful that we couldn’t even eat

Fatigue and carelessness are the main causes of accidents; they are of an operational nature
