Harassment and intimidation have become common occurrences for staff members working on platforms and onboard trains. This is not an environment anyone should have to face, and it's a reality that profoundly impacts our ability to perform our jobs and ensure the safety of passengers.

It's time for change: we need stronger security measures in place to protect those who work tirelessly to keep our train systems running. This issue not only affects the well-being of staff but also jeopardizes the safety of passengers who rely on trains as a primary means of transportation.

According to recent statistics, around 3,000 incidents of harassment and assault occur on trains and in stations each year (source: National Rail Safety Board). These are not just numbers; they represent real people whose lives have been disrupted and traumatized by such events.

Increasing the presence of trained security personnel, installing more surveillance cameras, and ensuring better lighting in stations can play vital roles in deterring misconduct and ensuring that both staff and passengers feel safe.

We urge train companies and relevant authorities to prioritize this pressing issue. Implementing stricter security protocols and investing in preventive measures will not only provide protection but also restore confidence in our public transportation systems.

Join us in demanding increased security on the railways.
