Engineer Sam Salehpour says he fears ‘physical violence’ for going public with concerns about ‘no safety culture’ at the planemaker
Hundreds of people could lose their lives if Boeing fails to address quality issues on its production line, a whistleblower warned US Congress on Wednesday.
Sam Salehpour, an engineer at the planemaker, told a high-profile hearing on Capitol Hill that he fears “physical violence” after going public with his concerns. There is “no safety culture” at Boeing, he claimed, alleging that employees who raise the alarm are “ignored, marginalized, threatened, sidelined, and worse”.
