A hearing titled 'Boeing's broken safety culture' is set to take place on Tuesday, where the company and its CEO, Dave Calhoun, will come under scrutiny. This marks Calhoun's first appearance before Congress since taking the helm of the troubled company more than four years ago.
Senator Richard Blumenthal, the Connecticut Democrat leading the committee, has outlined strong criticisms of Boeing and Calhoun in his planned opening remarks. He accuses Calhoun of prioritizing profits over airplane safety and fostering a culture where employees who raised safety concerns were met with retaliation, despite management's claims to the contrary.
