Railway safety is a critical aspect of transportation systems worldwide, ensuring the secure movement of people and goods. Despite advancements in technology and rigorous safety standards, railway incidents still occur, often with severe consequences.
For years, the slogan for the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) railway section has been “Safety First.” This is about maintaining the railways as a safe workplace for the federation’s members and other workers employed in the railway industry, as well as ensuring safety for passengers and the general public.
