Transportation impacts every facet of American life, providing people access to work, school, loved ones, and nature’s rich bounty.  As a DOT employee, you will become a part of the dedicated workforce who works day-to-day to make measurable improvements in our transportation system, the security of our nation, and the quality of American life. 

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), an Operating Administration under DOT, was created to promote and enforce safety throughout the U.S. railroad system, consolidate Federal financial support for rail transportation, and support research and development to benefit rail transportation for passengers, railroad employees and the general public.  The FRA is ranked by its employees as one of the top-rated agencies in which to work, according to the Office of Personnel Management 2008 Federal Human Capital Survey (Review the results of the FRA 2008 Federal Human Capital Survey ; PDF | 253K) New Employee Image
