East Palestine train derailment: Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost discusses lawsuit

Here's a look at the latest on the East Palestine train derailment

In the face of continuing public scrutiny, Norfolk Southern says it has recently reached agreements to provide paid sick leave to members of nine of its labor unions.

The railway announced the latest deal with the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers and Blacksmiths (IBBB) on Wednesday, giving workers four additional paid sick days per year.

"We continue to make strides to improve the quality of life of our craft railroaders in partnership with our unions," Norfolk Southern President and CEO Alan Shaw said in a statement. "Our railroaders help drive the American economy forward, and each of these new agreements helps ensure that they have even more time to manage their personal health and well-being."
