SAFETY RELATED TRAINING IN RAILWAYS
The Railways have
embarked upon modifying and refreshing the training of Railway
staff to update their knowledge and skill. Accordingly, a comprehensive
training need analysis of all categories of staff is underway.
Based on the analysis, training modules are revised to suit the
training requirement of individual staff besides, bringing changes
in technology, work practices and objectives of the job.
All major training
centers are being provided with funds under the Special Railway
Safety Fund (SRSF) for providing aids, models and kits to improve
safety awareness among the railway staff.
For attracting competent
and talented instructors training allowance is granted to them
and they are allowed to retain quarters at their previous places
of posting for two years.
In addition, a separate
unit is being set up for training techniques and instructional
designs at Gwalior for development of lesson plans and training
modules of all railway staff.
