This morning, Boeing is facing scrutiny as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) releases a new report highlighting safety concerns within the company. The report, commissioned a year ago but gaining attention now, delves into the safety culture at Boeing following the tragic 737 Max eight crashes that claimed 346 lives in 2018 and 2019.
The review panel, consisting of representatives from airlines, unions, and safety units of other aerospace companies, found significant gaps in Boeing's safety culture. One major issue identified was the lack of knowledge among employees on how to report safety problems to their managers, with concerns raised about potential retaliation for speaking up.
