Two Employees Terminated for Violation of Company Policy

An Amtrak Trainer was terminated from employment on May 7, 2019, and an Amtrak Foreman was terminated on May 17, 2019, after our investigation determined both employees violated company policy. We found that the Chicago-based employees falsified company training records for required safety-related tasks on passenger equipment. The Trainer and the Foreman both signed the training rosters attesting that the Foreman participated in the training classes when, in fact, the Foreman did not attend the training.
