The goal of a Rail Safety Workers Assessment – which is a component of the national system of health assessments for rail safety workers – is to guarantee that personnel can carry out their jobs safely. It also attempts to ensure the early detection and management of health issues that, if untreated, could affect an employee’s ability to perform their job.

There are 3 categories based on risk. Which category selected for the proposed worker is based on how significantly a worker’s physical and mental health affect other people’s safety or the safety of the rail network.
