Ensuring railway safety is one of every stakeholder’s most essential goals. The objectives of this study were to examine the driving safety factors, work characteristics, and workload associated with the status of train drivers and propose recommendations to reduce the risk of occupational hazards. This study included a survey of the current status of the train driver environment and a questionnaire about the driving safety of train drivers associated with the psychosocial working environment, work-family conflict, and workload. The results revealed that vehicle breakdowns and track intrusion on duty impact driving safety the most. Secondly, the source of the workload is a severe lack of workforce. This underscores the importance of addressing workforce shortages to reduce the mental and physical strain on train drivers. Thirdly, the primary source of job stress comes from working hours because the types of trains to be driven differ every day due to drivers working on shifts, and the workload is higher when drivers have to drive a train type that they haven’t worked with for a long time. These findings are significant as they highlight the need for improved maintenance and monitoring systems to reduce the occurrence and impact of these incidents. It is recommended that case studies involving experienced drivers be collected for education and training or situational analysis; train malfunctions often occur while the train is in operation. However, no comprehensive data about how to troubleshoot them and when to stop the train have been collected and analyzed. Senior drivers can make a more accurate judgment based on their experience, while new drivers or those who do not have direct contact with trains are not that familiar with train operations. It is recommended that a comprehensive manual for troubleshooting be compiled and updated periodically for future education and training and emergency troubleshooting. |
