What is Fela?
 FELA,
or the Federal Employment Liability Act assures railroad
employees a safe work place and gives them and their families
the right to recover compensation if injured in a railroad
related accident. Under FELA, injured employees can seek
compensation for wage loss, future wage loss, medical expenses
and treatments, pain and suffering, and for partial or permanent
disability. PCB and solvent
exposure lawsuits, while working for the railroad, have been
filed under FELA. Click Here for More Information » |
