Not everything one reads in the Print media is a Factual account as to what is going on at the L.I.R.R. The NEW Railroad President (Helena Williams) states that the Railroad is a safe place to work and has been given awards for its employee safety...well, OK, but thats NOW. These former employees who are getting a disability, have worked on the railroad at a time when the railroads safety record was dismal. If the railroads riding Public wants some Proof...think about all the reports in the local papers about The GAP accidents on the railroad. Think about how long this has been a problem...think about how long nothing has been done by the railroad to correct the problem. Think about how much money the railroad has had to pay out in law suits for injured commuters. Think about how much PRESS coverage this issue has received. Now, think back for a moment about the railroads comments as to their SAFETY record. Does anyone have a question about CREDIBILITY? As most people know, companys put out BIDS to various companys for services or equipment...and all too often, the lowest bid gets the contract. Well, not all services or equipment are the best or safest, that is available. And that is when employees are at a disadvantage. That is when they sustain an injury. It's the COST OF DOING BUSINESS. And during my time at the railroad, I saw this happen more times than I care to remember. These former employees who are receiving disability pensions, worked there for periods of 25-30 years....do the MATH!
