I would think that's where it starts, if the foreman or inspectors aren't doing anything about it at the time, you go to a super or your BA. If a group of guys are working with the BA it's his job to take it up higher.

You have standards, if it really isn't right or dangerous to the community you do what you gotta do. I would just expect your brothers to be standing with you, I know mine would.

Just curious, did you go to the media before or after you got laid off?

The superintendent was making the decisions, same with foreman..went to the BA while still employeed who thru me under bus and labeled me as the whistleblower...had a meeting with CEO of company then lost job 3 days later midway thru a massive project (someone took my spot) after union/company showed they had no intentions of doing anything (in bed together) I decided to share story with media....back me in a corner and prepare to be hit in nose mentality I guess....
