David is a recently graduated mechanical engineer who is hired in anaircraft producing company. He is specialized is designing the aircraft fuel tank system and related wiring connectors. David in this company is working as a trainee engineer and under the supervision of two safety engineers. After working for a few months, he noticed that that his designs are approved directly without being reviewed carefully by safety engineers.David was asked to work overtime to complete a large aircrafts order received by this company recently. The company now will produce aircrafts in large volume in a short period of time. Under the pressure of overtime work to complete this order, and the idea that projects are not reviewed by safety engineers, all this increased David’s worries and concerns of making a mistake and put thousands of people at risk.
In efforts to relieve his worries, David talked to one of the safety engineers and expressed his concern about safety. The safety engineer told David not worry too much because of the following facts:
1- Aircrafts is ordered by a country which doesn’t comply with international safety standards.
Therefore, no need to increase safety measures during production.
2- Design review should not be an issue because aircraft will be used in another country. In addition, the safety engineers don’t have a time to review projects due to work overload.
