The work of an Indian Loco pilot is a complex task that demands different levels of cognitive and physical capabilities. The job demands of a loco pilot are driving on long-distance routes through various environmental conditions, attention to signalling system, overnight stay in various locations, stretchable working hours, improper work-rest cycle and sighting different undue incidents on the railway track. This paper aims to understand the effects of psychosocial factors across the designation levels of Loco pilots. The paper also deals with understanding the tasks performed by them and their effects on the Loco pilots. A study was conducted on loco pilots on Patna Jn under the Danapur division. Data was collected through structured questionnaires from different stakeholders. In addition, working conditions and duty of the Loco pilot were observed during site visits and interviews. The study will be helpful in the identification of improvement areas of the working conditions across various designation levels of the Loco Pilots.
