Webinar: General Directive 24-1: Required Actions Regarding Assaults on Transit Workers
This webinar reviewed FTA's recently issued General Directive 24-1 on required actions to protect the nation's frontline transit workers from assaults. As described in the directive, transit agencies subject to FTA's Public Transportation Agency Safety Plans (PTASP) regulation must conduct a safety risk assessment, identify safety risk mitigations or strategies and provide information to FTA on how they are assessing, mitigating and monitoring the safety risk associated with assaults on transit workers. The webinar also covered the Safety Management System (SMS) Report, a new information collection tool for SMS reporting designed to streamline transit agency reporting in response to General Directive 24-1.
