Union Pacific Railroad must pay $51,000 in punitive damages and back pay to a Carson-based employee for violating federal whistle-blower provisions by illegally suspending him for videotaping a safety inspection on his cellphone, workplace safety regulators announced Friday. The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigators found the company had suspended the employee after he refused to delete video footage of an air compressor test aboard a locomotive.
