N.J. Transit to pay in whistleblower case

Posted on Wednesday, April 14th, 2010 at 11:25 am    

A judge awarded a New Jersey Transit worker over $500,000 in a whistler blower case. The man reported a workplace injury of fellow workers and was treated unfairly afterward, which caused him to lose his car and home.

The incident occurred in February 2008 when a contractor’s crew came in contact with live overhead wire at New Jersey Transit’s Morris and Essex line. One man was killed an four others were injured in the incident. The U.S. Labor Department concluded the the NJ Transit violated federal whistle blower laws by retaliating against the man. The law states that management is not allowed to retaliate against anyone who reports workplace accident or injuries.
