FRA on our property
"As you are aware, the FRA is currently on properties conducting their Union Pacific Safety Culture Assessment where they "interview" operating crews to gauge their personal feelings regarding UP's safety environment.
These "interviews" are anonymous for crew members and involve answering questions from an FRA inspector and suppose to take place outside the presence of UP management.
If you have any experience or knowledge of the FRA conducting the interviews in the presence of UP management, please let me know ASAP. I would need details including the name of the FRA inspector, location of the interview and which UP manager(s) was present. Our SMART-TD National Legislative office will be interested in any such feedback so that they can provide the information to FRA for handling, thanks."
