Yes, most rail insurance had exceptions. Generally they would not pay out for Rule G, which is drunk or just being a no show at work or theft. It is very easy to get discipline time off or be dismissed from service. It is just the way the railroad works. A lot of insurance was only good for once a year. We use to like to give them 5 or 10 days. They would have second thoughts about turning it in. I have even had guys ask for 60 days on an offense so they could draw and be off longer. They got paid anyway so why not.

Chuck,
Both the BRCF and the UTU had exclusions for rule G
violations. It was one thing to make a mistake or be a victim of circumstances
but the funds weren't going to pay for willful rule violations.
