Question

hello guys this is regarding a construction safety class, under the civil engineering degree, hope to hear your thoughts and comments

1. Construction Management, Inc. (CMI) has a safety awareness program, but it does not seem to be working. CMI’s president and his two vice presidents developed the program themselves and implemented it company wide six months ago. Unfortunately, they have seen no decrease in the number of accidents and incidents. What possible problems do you see with CMI’s safety awareness program? What changes or improvements would you recommend?

2. Employees of Bearden Construction Company have begun to complain regularly about Josh Randall. They say that his behavior has become unpredictable and that he blows up at the slightest provocation. One employee even said, “This guy is going to hurt somebody.” To each complaint, the supervisor’s response is the same: “Be patient. Josh is a good man. He’s just dealing with some personal problems right now. He’ll get over it.” What do you think of the supervisor’s response to employee concerns? How do you think this situation should be handled?
