Indian Railways are developing a computer based competence evaluation system for different categories of staff on safety related knowledge and skill.
This will put in place a periodical evaluation of knowledge to assess competence levels of critical employees in safety areas to eliminate accidents by human failure and improve safety of rail services.
The system will also indicate the area of concern where competence level of safety related staff is low. This will enable the Government to address training needs of such employees appropriately and cost-effectively.
