Workforce Development (WFD) Survey

OMB 2130-0621

FRA is proposing the continuation of this qualitative study which is intended to survey a select group of railroad industry personnel to gain insight into the current workforce development practices and challenges. The survey data will be published in an update to the Modal Profile Report. The update is estimated for publication approximately 6-9 months after the completion of data collection. Primary users of the information will be personnel within FRA Workforce Development Team (WDT) whose charge it is to promote and standardize workforce development practices to address the railroad industry’s workforce talent requirements and ensure safe operations. This is a voluntary collection.

The latest form for Workforce Development (WFD) Survey expires 2024-01-31 and can be found here.
