Abstract:The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) industry. Common themes identified in the Workforce Development Survey collected responses from across the railroad industry to improve and reinforce the understanding of current workforce challenges identified and tracked in the FRA’s biennial Railroad Industry Modal Profile: An Outline of the Railroad Industry Workforce Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities. This initial survey included participants from major rail industry segments, including; academia, passenger rail, freight rail (Class I and shortline), labor unions, and associations. An online survey tool (Survey Monkey) was used to distribute 25 survey questions to each industry segment. This Office of Management and Budget (OMB)-approved survey provides the potential to reach significantly more participants and validate established workforce related challenges tracked and reported in the modal profile. The survey was necessary to increase the range of input from across industry to improve updates to the profile. Historically, input from industry was limited to comply with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, which limits surveys to the public without OMB approval.
