At the International Railway Safety Conference (IRSC) 2026 in Lisbon, ETF Technical Coordinator and locomotive driver Marco Hörtenhuber-Stuhl presented the European Transport Workers' Federation's vision for monitoring working, driving and rest time as a core railway safety tool. His presentation,"Monitoring Working Time as a Railway Safety Tool: From Compliance to Proactive Risk Management", argued that effective monitoring is not merely an administrative or labour-law requirement, but an essential component of modern railway safety management.
