Scenario 3. SAFETY OF PUBLIC (SBCE Monday Tutorial Class 12-1 & 2-3)
Alfredo was asked by his boss to design a bridge that will not exceed S1.5M budget to
build. After doing the engineering designs and estimates, Afredo submitted it to his boss
with the following details:
Alfredo’s Boss reacted” If we don’t build the bridge for $1.5 M, then we have to do
some staff downsizing by 50% of the staff , and that includes you.”
His Boss further instructed him to proceed with the next stage of the project.
Mr. F (Eng.) works for a company that specializes in engineering, procurement, and
construction for the oil and gas industry. Mr. F spends much of his time visiting clients at
their drill sites as part of his job. Mr. F has recently been assigned to pay a site visit to a
client, Virata Corp. While visiting Virata Corp’s site, Mr. F detects the slight odor of sour
gas (hydrogen sulphide) and notes that the area is not properly marked with a hazard
flag and that there does not seem to be appropriate safety equipment readily available
near the area. Mr. F is aware that sour gas can pose a fire hazard and can be fatal to
humans even at low concentrations. Mr. F is at the drill site as a consultant and so is not
directly responsible for site safety. Site safety typically falls to the responsibility of the
site manager/engineer, so Mr. F points the hazard out to Virata Corp’s site manager
and suggests a way to address it. At the following visit a few weeks later, Mr. F notes
that the hazard is still not properly marked. Mr. F stresses to Virata Corp’s site manager
the seriousness of the situation in terms of potential harm to workers or others visiting
the site. The response from the site manager is that addressing the hazard would be
costly and to date there have not been any complaints from Virata Corp’s workers. What
should Mr. F do?
