Introduction
The Plain Writing Act of 2010 requires Federal agencies to write "clear Government communication that the public can understand and use."
The U.S. Railroad Retirement Board is committed to writing documents in plain language, using the Federal Plain Language Guidelines. Since the inception of the Act, we have provided plain writing training to all of our employees, and continue to emphasize the importance of communicating clearly.
If you have recommendations on how we can improve our written communication, or if you have trouble understanding a form, document, or any pages on our website, please let us know by emailing our Public Affairs office at opa@rrb.gov.
We are also required to report our progress and compliance with the Act. Our annual compliance reports are posted below.
