Briefly

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau's report revealed that inadequate resources and excessive night shifts contributed to an air traffic controller being found asleep at work.
The report criticized the Brisbane Centre for its ineffective risk management systems, pointing out that the air traffic controller's workload was low, which further led to the incident.
