Railway Workers

Fraud affects the whole industry including organisations and workers.

Our Mission

We are committed to preventing fraudulent activities that harm workers and organizations within the railway industry. Fraudulent practices have a direct impact on employee pay, workplace fairness, and overall industry integrity. We strongly encourage anyone with information about fraud to report it, as providing evidence of fraudulent activity will help speed up the investigation.

Common Types of Fraud in the Railway Industry:

  • Brown Envelope Deals: Secret payments or bribes that undermine fairness and transparency.
  • Ghosting: Listing workers who don't actually work but still receive payment, reducing funds for actual employees.
  • Payslip Fraud: Manipulating payslips to underpay workers or hide deductions.
  • Fake Expenses: Submitting false expense claims to steal company funds.
  • Underpayment: Paying workers less than agreed or withholding overtime pay.

Protecting Yourself from Fraud

As a worker, you can take steps to protect yourself from becoming a victim of fraud:

  • Document all conversations and phone calls discussing potentially fraudulent deals.
  • Keep detailed records of your work hours, including overtime.
  • Regularly review your payslips for accuracy and report discrepancies immediately.
  • Be wary of requests to participate in schemes that seem unethical or illegal.
  • Familiarize yourself with your company's policies and industry regulations.
  • Save all official communications, contracts, and agreements.
  • If possible, use secure, company-approved channels for all work-related communications.
  • Report any suspicious activities or requests to the appropriate authorities or through proper channels.
  • Consider joining a union or worker's association for additional support and protection.
  • Stay informed about your rights as a worker in the railway industry.

By exposing fraudulent practices and taking proactive steps to protect yourself, we can ensure fair pay, safe working conditions, and ethical behavior in the railway industry. Join us in our mission to create a transparent and accountable workplace for all.
