Wear and Tear on Military Personnel Post Caledonian Crisis
Since May 2024, New Caledonia has been experiencing a period of crisis. The organisation of the work of military personnel on the ground has been heavily impacted, with longer working hours, shorter rest periods and increased stress levels (uncertainty about the situation, lack of visibility, etc.).
Prolonged exposure to stress is accompanied by neuronal damage (Ramdani et al., 2024) and operational fatigue, a mindset that results from reversible neuronal damage and appears to be distinct from exhaustion. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the crisis on the level of operational fatigue. In addition, identifying the organisational and human factors (Jaspers et al., 2024) that may have been protective against operational fatigue could help to optimise the way in which these factors are taken into account in the event of future crises, in order to promote resilience.
