Purpose
The site,
https://secure.rrb.gov/employer, is an official United States Government
site intended for use by employers covered under the Railroad Retirement and
Railroad Unemployment Insurance Acts in filing service and compensation reports
with the Railroad Retirement Board and related activities. The site is referred
to as the Employer Reporting System (ERS.)
Overview of employer reporting site
The ERS web site includes or will include:
- roles-based access system,

- informational notices made available to employers on line,
- request forms sent to employers for their response,
