2020-S26 Competence assurance in the trackwork training of companies

Justification of the recommendation

Based on the investigation, there are deficiencies in the training and competence related to locating trackwork. Not all trackwork supervisors know how to take advantage of the features of the RUMA application or understand why using them is necessary. This means that competence assurance in the trackwork training of companies has not been completely successful

Recommendation

The Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency emphasises competence assurance in auditing the training of trackwork companies
