FTA to Host Webinar on Transit Worker Fatigue; Creation of Fatigue Risk Management Programs

Fatigue is a serious safety risk in transit operations. To address this issue, FTA will host a webinar on July 22, 2026, at 1:00 PM Central Time to discuss fatigue and specifically address the recently published Safety Bulletin 26-01 on Transit Worker Fatigue. During this webinar, participants also will hear from a research expert on fatigue and fatigue management programs (FRMP) who will provide an in-depth view on the problem of fatigue and methods for addressing this and from a transit agency – Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Agency (WMATA) – with significant experience and expertise on this issue to provide its perspective on how to address fatigue in rail and bus operations using its FRMP.

Webinar registration is available here and Safety Bulletin 26-01 may be viewed here.
