• Abstract:
  Due to shifting demographics and an aging employee population, certain rail safety leadership skills, including both technical and non-technical skills, are at risk of disappearing. The sheer volume of railroad workforce turnover suggests that neither succession-planning nor workforce-promotion programs alone will adequately mitigate seniority knowledge loss. Recognizing this risk, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Office of Research, Development, and Technology’s Human Factors Division sponsored TrueSafety Evaluation and Perigean Technologies to develop an Expertise Management (EM) framework for identifying, capturing, and transferring critical areas of expertise for safety leadership positions.
