Railroad Injuries
Report
Have you been injured by a railroad? Railroad workers who are injured or killed on the job do not have workers' compensation. Instead, they are covered by a special federal law, the Federal Employers Liability Act, or FELA. For over 40 years, attorney Charlie Goetsch has been protecting injured railroad workers under the FELA.
Railroad Injuries FAQ
Report
The Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA) covers rail workers who are injured or killed on the job. It is not a workers' compensation law. It was enacted by Teddy Roosevelt in 1908 to protect rail workers who are negligently injured on the job. The FELA requires all railroads to provide their employees with a reasonably safe place to work.
Whistleblower Retaliation
Report
Employees in many industries are protected from retaliation for whistleblowing activities. Subway workers are protected by the National Transit Systems Security Act (NTSSA), and merchant marine seamen are protected by the Seaman's Protection Act (SPA). Both are similar to the Federal Rail Safety Act, which prohibits all railroads from retaliating against workers who engage in certain "protected activities."
