Court rejects waivers to limit railroad liability
Indiana Supreme Court reaffirmed that 1897 state law makes railroads liable for employee injuries from defective machinery or coemployee negligence. A Pennsylvania RR employee signed a waiver for damages and benefits, but the court ruled the contract void, preserving railroad accountability to workers. The Outlook endorses holding corporations responsible to employees and argues waivers cannot erase liability. The piece notes the gold standard discussion and broader implications for national finance and big infrastructure projects.
