Fela information
This 3 sentence summary provides the essential details about a $569,500 FELA jury verdict in favor of the plaintiff, Ron Vergara:
While working as a trainman for Union Pacific Railroad, Ron Vergara injured his back trying to uncouple railcars on a sharply curved track with known issues. Despite undergoing back surgery, Vergara was unable to return to work for the railroad, which also terminated him while he was disabled. A jury awarded Vergara $569,500 under FELA for the railroad's negligence that caused his injuries and termination.
Hidden tragedy _underreporting_of_workplace_injur
This document summarizes evidence that work-related injuries and illnesses in the US are significantly underreported, possibly by as much as 69%. Experts identify several reasons for underreporting, including certain workers being excluded, difficulties identifying occupational illnesses, and immigrant workers being reluctant to report. A major cause is employers' incentives to underreport for regulatory and economic reasons. Employers use various strategies like intimidating workers who report injuries and providing inadequate medical care. Underreporting undermines OSHA's ability to effectively enforce safety standards and allocate resources. Reform is needed to improve the accuracy of injury and illness recordkeeping.
Eye med summary
The document announces that effective January 1, 2013, vision plan benefits for railroad employees will be provided by EyeMed Vision Care instead of VSP. There will be no changes to plan design but some enhancements, including a larger provider network, ID cards for members, and increased discounts. Retirees will have access to a discount plan through EyeMed providers. In November, employees will receive information about the transition to EyeMed, and in January they will receive ID cards and details on their EyeMed benefits and providers.

Cfr 2010-title49-vol4-part219
This document discusses requirements for railroads that use camera-assisted remote control locomotive operations at highway-rail grade crossings. Key points:
- Camera-assisted remote control is only allowed at crossings with flashing lights, gates, and train detection if speeds warrant.
- The remote operator must have a clear view of the approaches and be able to judge speed/behavior of approaching vehicles.
- Cameras must allow the operator to determine if warning lights and gates are working properly.
- If a prior diagnostic team evaluation found a crossing suitable, new requirements still apply to remote operations there.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters blasted Mitt Romney for comments he made disparaging unions. Romney told wealthy donors he wished the federal workforce was less unionized so he could make deeper cuts if elected. The Teamsters General President criticized Romney for his blatant disdain for workers and for prioritizing the wealthy over all Americans. Romney's remarks raised concerns that he would not serve as president for all citizens. The Teamsters represent over 1.4 million men and women in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico.
Fringe benefits 2012
1) The document outlines the estimated value of fringe benefits for railroad employees earning $110,100 or more per year in 2012. Benefits paid by the carrier total $37,984.11 per year or $3,165.35 per month.
2) Benefits paid by employees themselves total $9,414.75 per year or $784.57 per month and include contributions to Railroad Retirement Tiers 1 and 2 and Medicare.
3) Benefits provided by carriers and paid for include Railroad Retirement tiers 1 and 2, Medicare, unemployment/sickness, health plans, dental, and vision, while benefits paid by employees are contributions to Railroad Retirement
RRT and SS comparison
- Railroad retirement benefits are generally higher than social security benefits, especially for career railroad employees, due to higher payroll taxes.
- In 2008, the average career railroad retiree received $2,510 per month compared to $1,085 under social security. Spouse benefits also averaged higher under railroad retirement.
- Railroad employees can receive benefits earlier than under social security - at age 60 with 30 years of service with no reduction, compared to age 62 under social security.
Regarding housereport
The House Budget Report proposes conforming railroad retirement tier I benefits to social security benefits to save $2 billion over 10 years. While railroad retirement taxes paid by employees and employers are higher than social security taxes, tier I benefits are currently more generous than social security benefits in some ways. However, railroad retirement benefits on average are higher due to additional retirement taxes paid by railroads. The Railroad Retirement Board cannot comment on specific changes without seeing proposed legislation.
Unionsmakethemiddleclass
This document discusses how unions help strengthen the middle class in three key ways:
1) Unions raise wages and improve benefits for workers, helping more workers achieve middle-class status.
2) Unions give workers a stronger voice in corporate decision making to advocate for middle-class concerns.
3) Unions promote political participation and advance government policies that support the middle class, such as Social Security and family leave.
However, as union membership has declined from 30% in the 1960s to less than 12% today, unions have less ability to fight for middle-class jobs and wages, and the share of income going to the middle class has shrunk. Stronger unions would translate to higher incomes for typical

Senator Sherrod Brown has introduced legislation that would reform U.S. trade policy to restore congressional oversight over trade negotiations and ensure trading partners adhere to fair labor standards. The Teamsters Union supports this bill as it would require trade agreements to improve working conditions both domestically and abroad. The bill aims to rewrite global trade rules to better protect workers during negotiations like the Trans-Pacific Partnership talks scheduled for the following week.
TPP
This document summarizes the legislative agenda of the Teamsters union. It discusses bills related to surface transportation, homeland security issues, worker misclassification, and attacks on unions. Key bills covered include bills related to the transportation bill, the Mexican truck pilot program, the trans pacific partnership, and various anti-union legislation such as bills aimed at weakening the NLRB.
House budget
The document is an email from John Tolman to legislative chairmen informing them that the recently passed Republican budget again targets Railroad Retirement Tier 1 benefits and aims to conform them to be equal to Social Security benefits, which would eliminate certain railroad retirement benefits and negatively impact the annuities of over 120,000 non-disabled employees, 90,000 spouses, and 62,000 disabled employees. Attached is a section from the budget report outlining various policy options including changes to railroad retirement.
Bletconductor certificatio nv14c blet2
This document summarizes the key aspects of regulations for conductor certification and training as established by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA).
1. Congress required the FRA to develop regulations requiring certification and training of train conductors based on existing regulations for locomotive engineers. The FRA convened a Rail Safety Advisory Committee working group to develop the regulations.
2. The regulations establish requirements for conductor certification programs, eligibility determinations, administration of certifications, identification of certified conductors, and denial or revocation of certification for safety violations. Conductors must be certified and qualified for the territory in which they work.
3. The regulations define conductor duties and responsibilities, certification periods, replacement of certificates, record
Blet the new health welfare 12 9-11
The document outlines changes to health and welfare benefits for active employees covered by GA 23000, effective January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2016. Key changes include a reduced monthly member contribution of $200 that remains frozen for 4 years, lower annual deductibles that are phased in, coinsurance with annual caps that are phased in, various co-pays for medical services and prescriptions, and incentives for generic drugs.
Agreement 2012
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Bletconductor certificatio nv14c blet2
The document discusses the new regulations under 49 CFR 242 that establish conductor certification requirements as mandated by the Railroad Safety Act of 2008. It went through the Railroad Safety Advisory Committee consensus process where the Federal Railroad Administration worked with railroad stakeholders to develop the regulations. Key aspects of the final regulations include definitions of terms, eligibility and program requirements, administration of certification, territorial qualifications, prohibited acts, and revocation and appeals processes. The regulations aim to functionally certify conductors regardless of job title and are modeled after but not identical to existing regulations for certifying locomotive engineers.
