摘要：	I so appreciated Tara Hoke's A Question of Ethics article "Lack of Experience and a Lax Attitude Cause Failure" that appeared in the January/ February issue, pages 20-21.I have always enjoyed reading her articles, and I look forward to them each edition. But this article was outstanding in the way that it intertwined safety, ethics, and the importance of establishing a safety culture. The article details the many missteps that took place during a project to install a standby generator. This seemingly straightforward project, though, was littered with safety and ethical violations. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2019, there were more than 1,000 deaths in the construction industry and approximately 200,000 recordable injuries. Many of these deaths and injuries were due to the same factors in this article: inexperienced personnel, indifference to standards and procedures, and improper reporting of issues, among others.
