When Reporting Becomes Dangerous
An employee reports a damaged machine guard. The supervisor says:
You can write the report, but remember that bonuses depend on this department avoiding safety incidents.
Answer the following:
  1. What message is the supervisor sending?
  2. Could this statement discourage reporting?
  3. What should the employer do after learning about the statement?
  4. How could the bonus program be redesigned so it rewards safety without suppressing reports?
