What are the most common types of hazards in the railroad injury?
Laws are set in place to ensure that the employees are provided with a reasonably safe work environment. For example, the Federal Employees Liability Act (FELA) mandates that railroads maintain their fleet and be in good working order. In addition, railroad industries, under federal law, are required to reasonably protect their workers from injuries.
Many injuries are the result of:
- Toxic or hazardous substances
- Faulty equipment & tools
- Dangerous working conditions, such as exposure to Asbestos, Diesel fumes, Silica, Metals, and Solvents
