Federal Employers' Liability Act

Read a random definition: nonessential term

A quick definition of Federal Employers' Liability Act:

Federal Employers' Liability Act: A law that helps employees of railroads who work across different states or countries. If these employees get hurt or die while working, they can get money to help them and their families. This law is also called FELA.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA) is a law that provides death and disability benefits for employees of railroads that operate across state lines or internationally. It is a workers' compensation law that protects railroad workers who are injured or killed on the job.

Example: If a railroad worker is injured while working on a train that travels between two states, they may be eligible for benefits under FELA. These benefits can include compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages resulting from the injury.

Explanation: FELA is designed to protect railroad workers who are engaged in interstate or international commerce. This means that if a worker is injured while working on a train that crosses state lines or travels to another country, they may be covered under FELA. The law provides benefits to help injured workers recover from their injuries and support their families if they are unable to work.
