SAFETY AWARDS

ASLRRA values and recognizes safe practices across our industry. Members are recognized for their contributions and achievements. ASLRRA's Annual President's Awards and Jake Awards are determined by region, and award winners are recognized at the Fall Regional Meetings. The Safety Person of the Year and Safety Professional of the Year are recognized and awarded at ASLRRA's CONNECTIONS conference each spring.

Performance-Based Safety Awards

President’s Awards

President’s Awards are presented regionally based on the previous year's safety data, according to the following criteria:
  • Awarded to the railroad with the most man-hours that has a 0.00 frequency rate, according to the FRA website.
  • Awarded to the member railroad in the following categories with the lowest frequency rate, below the industry average:
    • Greater than 500,000 man-hours
    • 250,000 - 500,000 man-hours
    • 150,000 - 250,000 man-hours
    • 50,000 - 150,000 man-hours
    • Less than 50,000 man-hours
  • All railroads must turn in their F6180.55 form, the Railroad Injury and Illness and Summary Form, to the FRA to be considered for the President’s Awards. No other steps are necessary.
