In my line of work if something happens that's a result of my negligence then I'm held personally responsible. There doesn't even have to be an accident. I can personally be fined by my company for up to $50,000, on top of that I get time off up to 90 days without pay, if it's bad enough you get fined by the company, FRA, and then fired. Our motto is accountability. If something like this happened to me I would be fined, given 90 days on the street, and then the company would pay the families, then after my 90 days and I were to come back to work they would then fire me.
