Igqwetha likaJohn Barnett, uBrian Knowles, uxelele i Intatheli yoLwaphulo-mthetho ukuba akazange abone naluphi na uphawu lomngcipheko wokuzibulala kumxhasi wakhe. UJohn Barnett utyholwa ngokuba wazibulala ngelixa wayengqina ngokuchasene noBoeing kwityala lakhe eSouth Carolina.
Akukho mntu unokukholelwa ukuba oku kukuzibulala.
Igqwetha uBrian Knowles kunye nabanye abasondeleyo kuJohn Barnett (uBoeing Whistleblower) abazibulalayo babelana ngalo myalezo.
Umhlobo kaBarnett uJennifer wathi: “Ndiyazi ukuba akazange azibulale. "Akukho ndlela." Umthombo: EMzantsi Carolina ABC4 News ingxelo.
Isikhalazo sokuQala esiLungisiweyo esifakwe kwiSebe lezeMisebenzi e-United States kwi-Ofisi yabaGcini bezoLawulo loMthetho, iCase No. 2021-AIR-00007 ityala lenkundla uJohn M Barnett vs Inkampani yeBoeing eSouth Carolina uphulaphule umba wokufakwa kwemali ngexesha lo lawulo lwangaphambili lweBoeing. umanejala kwaye ngoku umpempe kunye nommangali, kweli tyala, usweleke ngenxa yenxeba lokudutyulwa entloko.
Ityala kulindeleke ukuba liqhube nangona ebhubhile.
UPaul Hudson, intloko ye Ilungelo lokufunda uzakube ebiza i-FBI kunye neengcali zabucala ukuba ziphande ukufa kwakhe, okuye kwabizwa ngokuba kukuzibulala ngabasemagunyeni basekhaya.
Wathi: “Ngaphandle kophando olucokisekileyo, iingcamango zeyelenqe ziya kuba ninzi. Sele kukho iingxelo zokuba uxelele abahlobo bakhe ukuba ukuba ufunyenwe efile, bekungayi kuba ngokuzibulala.
Isikhalazo somthetho ummangalelwa akazange asinde sifundeka njenge-thriller.
Eli linyathelo lempindezelo engafanelekanga phantsi kweWendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (“AIR-21”), apho uMmangali, uJohn M. Barnett (“Barnett”), uMphathi woBulunga beBoeing ixesha elide. , utyhola ukuba kulo lonke ixesha lakhe leminyaka esixhenxe e-Boeing South Carolina ("BSC") wenza izikhalazo ezininzi malunga nenkcubeko enzulu kunye neqhubekayo yokuzifihla kwi-BSC apho yena kunye nabanye abasebenzi bomgangatho banyanzelwa khona ngabaphathi abaphezulu be-Boeing ukuba baphule i-Federal. IMigangatho neMimiselo yoLawulo lwezoPhapho (“FAA”) kunye neenkqubo kunye neenkqubo zeBoeing ngokungabhali ngokufanelekileyo kunye nokulungisa iziphene.
Okuqaphelekayo, ukusilela ekubhaleni ngokufanelekileyo nokulungisa iziphene kubangela irekhodi yolwakhiwo engaphelelanga, nto leyo eyenza ityala lolwaphulo-mthetho kwaye inokuba nefuthe elibi kukhuseleko loluntu olubhabhayo.
UBarnett wala ukugoba kuxinzelelo kwaye waqhubeka ephakamisa imiba efuna ukubhalwa ngokufanelekileyo kwaye ilungiswe. Ukuziphindezela ngenxa yezikhalazo zakhe kunye nokuchonga imiba efuna ukubhalwa ngokufanelekileyo kwaye ilungiswe, wanikwa amanqaku aphantsi oLawulo lokuSebenza ("PM").
Wohlulwa kwiqela lakhe kwaye wafudukela kwezinye iindawo kwiplanti, kwaye wafakwa kuluhlu lwabamnyama kwaye wathintelwa ukuba atshintshelwe kwamanye amacandelo eBoeing ngaphandle kweBSC.
Ukongezelela koko, waba phantsi kwephulo lokutshiswa kwegesi apho wayengcungcuthekiswa, ejongelwa phantsi, ethotywa isidima, ephathwa ngendelelo nokujongelwa phantsi ngabaphathi abaphezulu, nto leyo eyayicingelwa ukuba yayiza kumdimaza yena nabanye ukuba bangayiphakamisi imibandela enjalo nokuthobela umthetho. Ngokusekelwe kwingqibelelo yeemeko, loo hambo yafikelela kwindawo yokusebenza enobutshaba, nto leyo eyakhokelela ekubeni uBarnett akhululwe ngendlela eyakhayo.
Imvelaphi kaBarnett esebenzela iBoeing:
UBarnett wasebenzela iBoeing iminyaka engama-32, eyi-17 kuyo wasebenza njengoMphathi woMgangatho. Phambi kokutshintshelwa kwakhe kwi-BSC, uBarnett wayesebenza kwizibonelelo ze-Boeing's Everett, apho wayesebenza njengegcisa lombane kwinkqubo ye-747, nanjengomhloli, umcwangcisi, umphicothi-zincwadi, uMhloli woQinisekiso loBulunga (“QA”), kunye noMphathi woQinisekiso loMgangatho wokuQala ngaphezulu. iinkqubo ezininzi (kubandakanywa i-747, 767, 777 kunye ne-787, kunye nezabelo kwiNdawo yoKwahlula iMaterial Review Area ("MRSA").
Wasebenza njengoMphathi weNqanaba leSibini phezu kwe-Everett Receiving Inspection Organisation, eyayine-10 yezigidi zebhajethi yonyaka kwaye ixhasa yonke indawo yase-Everett, eWashington. Wahambela amazwe ahlukeneyo njengoMmeli woMgangatho weBoeing, ephuhlisa, ephumeza, kwaye eqhuba izicwangciso zokuphucula umgangatho kunye nababoneleli kwaye eqinisekisa ukuba bayahlangabezana neemfuno zoMgangatho weBoeing kunye neshedyuli yokuhanjiswa.
U-Barnett naye wajikeleza i-US emele uMgangatho we-Boeing Everett kwiintlanganiso ze-High-Level Executive. Wayehlala kwaye ebonwa njengomdlali obalaseleyo ngaphandle kwendawo okanye uMbutho awayekuwo.
UBarnett uthathe iiyure ezingaphezu kwe-1000 zoqeqesho olukhethekileyo lweBoeing ngaphandle kweyure kuphicotho-zincwadi, imveliso, ulawulo lwempahla, ulawulo, kunye no. unxibelelwano kwiinkcubeko ezahlukeneyo.
Uye wathatha nezifundo zaseKholejini ebusuku, esebenzela a IsiDanga sokuQala kwiiNkqubo zeMveliso kunye noLawulo lweMpahla ngogxininiso kwi Lawulo.
3) UBarnett waqala ukusebenza njengoMphathi woMgangatho weeFamily ezininzi kwi-BSC ngoNovemba ka-2010. NgoJanuwari 16, 2017, wafaka le AIR-21 isenzo sokubuyisela ngokungalunganga kunye ne-OSHA / FAA. NgoJanuwari 23, Ngo-2017, uBarnett waya kwikhefu lokungabikho kwezonyango ngokucetyiswa ngugqirha wakhe onyangayo kuba loxinzelelo kunye noxinzelelo lweemvakalelo awayephantsi kwalo ngenxa Ukuziphindezela kweBoeing. Nangona wayecebe ukusebenza eBoeing ubuncinane eminye iminyaka elishumi, wayeka umhlala-phantsi kwangethuba ngoMatshi 1, 2017, ngenxa yoxinzelelo olunxulumene nomsebenzi. Njengoko kuxoxwe ngezantsi, uBarnett wayephantsi kwemeko yomsebenzi enobutshaba, ekhokelela ekukhutshweni kwakhe okwakhayo.
4) Ukhuseleko lwe-FAA kunye nemigangatho yomgangatho kunye nemimiselo ifuna abavelisi beenqwelo-moya ukuba bhala wonke umsebenzi owenziweyo, zonke iziphene zichongiwe, kunye nomsebenzi wokulungisa owenziweyo kwaye ulandelele yonke into inxalenye edityaniswe kwinqwelomoya. IBoeing, ke ngoko, iyafuneka ukuba ibhale kwaye ilandele yonke indawo yenqwelomoya yayo. Kwinkqubo ye-787, i-Boeing ifezekisa oku ngenkqubo yayo ye-software yobunini, i-Velocity.
Amaxwebhu aqulethwe kwiVelocity abandakanya irekhodi yokwakha kwinqwelomoya nganye engama-787.
5) Isiseko esisisiseko somgangatho ukuba asibhalwanga, akuzange kwenzeke. Ngenxa yoko, Imigangatho kunye neMimiselo ye-FAA, kunye neenkqubo kunye neenkqubo zeBoeing, zifuna oko konke ukunyhashwa kweenkqubo nemigaqo neziphene mazibhalwe ngokufanelekileyo.
6) Njengomphathi woQinisekiso loMgangatho, uBarnett wayebophelelekile ngokusemthethweni ukuba alandele ukhuseleko lwe-FAA. kunye nemigangatho yomgangatho, ebandakanya imfuneko yokuba lonke uhlolo lomsebenzi lwenziwe Iinqwelomoya maziqhutywe ngokwaneleyo kwaye zibhalwe kunye nokuba zonke iziphene zibhalwe ngokufanelekileyo kwaye lungiswa.
Njengomphathi we-QA, u-Barnett naye wayenesibophelelo sokuziphatha kuluntu olubhabhayo lokuqinisekisa ukuba ezi zibophelelo zomthetho zingentla zazaliseka ngokwaneleyo.
7) Ukuthobela umthetho kunye nokuqinisekisa ukhuseleko loluntu olubhabhayo, kubalulekile ukuba abaphathi be-QA e-Boeing bafune imigangatho yokhuseleko ye-FAA kunye nomgangatho, kunye neenkqubo kunye neenkqubo ze-Boeing ukuba zilandelwe ngokungqongqo, ukuba yonke inkqubo kunye nenkqubo. Ulwaphulo-mthetho kunye neziphene mazibhalwe phantsi, ukuba naziphi na iziphene ziqatshelwe kwaye zilungiswe, kwaye zonke iindawo zilandelwe ngokufanelekileyo kwaye zibhalwe phantsi. Kwakhona kubalulekile ukuqinisekisa ukuba iikona azisikwa kwaye umsebenzi awenziwa "kwindawo engwevu."
Ngaphantsi kwe-FAA umgaqo we-14 CFR §21.146, bonke abasebenzi be-Boeing abasebenza okanye bahlole i-aircraft ye-787 kufuneka bangene kwi-Velocity kwaye babhale yonke imisebenzi kunye nokuhlolwa okwenziwe.
Iziphene kumsebenzi wobunjineli ezifuna ukulahlwa kobunjineli ziqatshelwa kusetyenziswa “ukungahambelani,” ezichongwa ngoomatshini kwaye zingenwe kwiVelocity ngabahloli boMgangatho. Ukungaphumeleli ngabom ukungena kwiVelocity kukwaphulwa kweNkqubo yoLawulo loMgangatho weBoeing (“QMS”), kwaye ukusilela ngabom ukubhala isiphene kwiVelocity kukunyhashwa kweSatifikethi seMveliso yeBoeing esinikwe yi-FAA phantsi kwe-14 CFR §21.146 (c) kunye (c) kunye ( f).
Ngaphezu koko, ukukhohlisa ngamabomu irekhodi yokwakha inqwelomoya iphula i-14 CFR §43.12 (Iirekhodi zoLondolozo: Ubuxoki, ukuveliswa, okanye ukuguqulwa). Ukongeza, ukumela kakubi okanye ukufihla into ephathekayo okanye ukubhala izinto ezibubuxoki kuphula i-18 USC §38.2
Imisebenzi ekhuselweyo kaBarnett
Ngexesha lokuqeshwa kwakhe eBoeing, uBarnett wazibandakanya kulo msebenzi ulandelayo okhuselweyo:
a) esoloko echasa ukuba iBoeing idale kwaye igcine inkqubo engavunywanga yiFAA evumela oomatshini ukuba bahlole kwaye bavume umsebenzi wabo, owaziwa njengeNkqubo yeMisebenzi emininzi.
Umdlali (MFPP);
b) ngokuqhubekayo egxininisa ngomlomo nangokubhala ukuba iinkqubo ze-BSC kunye
iinkqubo zilandelwe kwaye iziphene zibhalwe ngokufanelekileyo phambi koxinzelelo lolawulo lokutenxa kwimigaqo yokuvumela imveliso ukuhlangabezana nemihla ebekiweyo;
c) wathumela ii-imeyile ngo-2012 kuMlawuli woMgangatho weBSC ekhalaza ngoMphathi oMkhulu weNqanaba leSibini woMgangatho weBarnett, ;
d) uye wafaka iSikhalazo se-Ethics ngo-2014 ngokuphathelele umphathi ongazange avume ukubethwa ngepensile ephulukene neenxalenye ezingahambelaniyo.
e) wachasa iNgqungquthela yeNto yaNgaphandle (“FOD”) efunyenwe ngohlobo lwezityana ze-titanium ezivela kwi-e-nuts ezingalungiswanga kwaye zingacocwa;
f) wachasa ukuba kuvalwe ii-oksijini squibs ezineziphene;
g) unyanzelise ukuba iinkcukacha zeenombolo ezilahlekileyo/ ezingaphelelanga/ezingachanekanga kunye nedatha yeAircraft Readiness Log/Serial Number Control (ARL/SNC) ilungiswe kuzo zonke iinqwelomoya ezizisiweyo;
h) ufake iSikhalazo se-Ethics ngo-Oktobha 2016 malunga nomphathi wakhe kunye nokuziphindezela, indawo yokusebenza enobutshaba, kunye nokungafakwa kuluhlu lwabangabhalwanga kunye nokuvinjwa kwezinye izikhundla.
a) Ukuchasa okuqhubekayo kukaBarnett kwinkqubo yeMFPP kunye nokuqhubeka kwakhe ukunyanzelisa ukuba iinkqubo ze-QMS ze-Boeing zilandelwe nokuba iziphene zibhalwe ngokufanelekileyo phambi koxinzelelo lolawulo lokutenxa ukusuka kwimigaqo ukuze kuvunyelwe imveliso ukuhlangabezana nemihla ebekiweyo.
10) UBarnett wabika okokuqala kwi UMphathi woMgangatho oPhezulu kwiBSC. Utyhale abaphathi bakhe bomgangatho ukuba banyanzelise ukuba imigangatho ye-FAA yokhuseleko kunye nomgangatho, kunye neenkqubo kunye neenkqubo ze-Boeing, zilandelwe ngokungqongqo kwaye umgangatho unganikelwa okanye unqunyulwe.
I-Boeing yatyhalela ukutenxa kwimithetho ukuze ihlangabezane nemihla ebekiweyo.
Ngokucacileyo, abaphathi beBoeing batyhala umgangatho ukuba ujike kwimithetho ukuze imveliso ihlangabezane nemihla ebekiweyo. Ngokukodwa, ulawulo oluphezulu lwe-BSC luphumeze inkqubo ye-MFPP, apho oomatshini be-Boeing banikwa khona igunya lokuhlola kunye nokuvuma umsebenzi wabo. Ngokucacileyo, iMFPP Inkqubo yaphunyezwa ngaphandle kwemvume ye-FAA kwaye yaphula iSatifikethi seMveliso ye-Boeing enikwe yi-FAA ngokulandela i-14 CFR §21.146 (c) kunye (f).
Xa wayechasa ukuphunyezwa kwenkqubo ye-MFPP kwaye wagxininisa ukuba i-Boeing ingaphambuki kwimithetho, wayesongelwa ngokupheliswa. Wasebenzisa abafowunelwa bakhe Seattle kwaye walungiselela ukuba adluliselwe emva ukuya eWashington State ngokuthotywa kwi 2012.
11) Ngokucacileyo, uBarnett wayethetha kakhulu ekuxhaseni isikhundla sokuba inkqubo ye-MFPP kwakungekho mthethweni kwaye FAA ukhuseleko kunye nemigangatho yomgangatho, kunye neenkqubo Boeing ngokwayo kunye iinkqubo, mazilandelwe ngokungqongqo. Ngalo lonke ixesha lokuhlala kukaBarnett e-BSC, wayethetha ngokungavumi kwakhe ukutenxa kukhuseleko kunye nemigangatho yomgangatho nemimiselo ye-FAA, kunye neenkqubo zeBoeing kunye neenkqubo.
b) Ii-imeyile zika-Barnett ngo-2012 kuMlawuli woMgangatho we-BSC ekhalaza ngoMphathi oPhezulu woMgangatho weNqanaba leSibini, owaqeshwa njengoMphathi oPhezulu woMgangatho weNqanaba leSibini, waqala ukunyanzela uBarnett ukuba asebenze ngaphandle kweenkqubo ezifanelekileyo. Ngo-2012, uBarnett wathumela i-imeyile kuMlawuli weBSC kabini, ukukhalazela ukutyhalelwa ukusebenza ngaphandle kweenkqubo ezifanelekileyo.
Wa xelela Barnett ngomlomo ukuba akazange amkholelwe. Akukho phando lwenziwayo.
13) UBarnett waqhubeka egxininisa kwiinkqubo ezifanelekileyo ezilandelwayo. UBarnett wakhalaza malunga nezihlandlo ezingenakubalwa apho iinxalenye zazikhona ibiwe kwinqwelomoya enye kwaye ifakwe kwi Inqwelomoya engaphelelanga ngaphandle koxwebhu, ukulandeleka, okanye uphononongo lobunjineli. Kwiimeko ezininzi, umkhandi wayesiza emsebenzini ukuze afumanise ukuba iindawo awayezifakile kusuku olungaphambili azikho.
Abaphathi abaPhezulu abayihoyanga ingxaki yeendawo ezibiweyo kwaye banyanzelisa ukuba uBarnett ayeke idocumenting kubo kwii-imeyile nakwii-CAs (ii-EPDs zokulungisa). Zonke ii-EPD zamanyathelo okulungisa iindawo ezibiweyo ziye zacinywa ngokomyalelo wobuNkokheli ngaphandle kophando okanye inyathelo lokulungisa. (Ethics has iirekhodi).
14) Ngo-Oktobha 2012, u-Barnett wahlambalaza phambi kweqela lakhe waza wamhambisa kwi-2nd shift. ukuziphindezela ngokunyanzelisa ukuba kulandelwe iinkqubo ezifanelekileyo. Ukulandela kwiBarnett's ii-imeyile zangaphambili kuMlawuli woMgangatho, Iqela likaBarnett lifake isikhalazo malunga nokuziphatha. NgoJuni 2013, yena wathotywa wasuswa kubaphathi ngenxa “yehambo yakhe engafanelekanga”.
c) Ukuchasa kukaBarnett kwiFOD ngohlobo lwezityana zetitanium ezisuka kwi-E-nuts azilungiswa kwaye azicocwa.
15) Ngo-Agasti 2014, uBarnett wafumanisa ukuba izibophelelo zisetyenziselwa ukubamba iiplanga eziphantsi. (izikrufu kunye nee-“e-nuts”) bezishiya ukuya kuthi ga kwi-3” iislivers zetitanium ezinde xa zifakwayo, ukuvumela i-titanium slivers ukuba iwele kwiinyanda zocingo, iibhokisi zombane kunye nezinto zombane ibekwe phakathi kweepaneli zomgangatho kunye neepaneli zekhompatimenti yempahla, kunye nangaphezulu kweziko Indawo yetanki ephiko kunye nazo zonke izixhobo zombane ezibekwe apho. Iintsimbi zafunyanwa kuyo yonke iingcingo, kwiibhokisi zombane, nakwezinye iindawo.
16) Xa uBarnett wafumanisa iFOD, bamyalela ukuba ayiyeke kuba yayiza kubiza kakhulu ukususa zonke iipaneli zesilingi ukuba zicoceke, kwaye zinokonakala ngexesha lokususwa.
UBarnett akavumanga kakhulu ngelo xesha kwaye wanyanzelisa ukuba iiphaneli zisuswe kunye nombane amacandelo acociweyo ukuphelisa umngcipheko wokunqongophala kombane kwinkonzo. UBarnett wasuswa kwiprojekthi, kwaza kwabekwa omnye umphathi. Ubunkokeli ndagqiba kwelokuba ndiyeke iFOD hlala endaweni yokususa iipaneli zempahla kunye nokucoca iFOD.
17) waqeshwa njengoMphathi woMgangatho oPhezulu, kwaye wahlukana ngoko nangoko Iqela lokuhlola umgangatho likaBarnett ekuphindezeleni kwabo bangenise isikhalazo sokuziphatha. Ngokucacileyo, yona qhubeka apho uyekile ekunyanzeliseni ukuba umgangatho ungabi ngumsebenzi woxwebhu owenziweyo ngaphandle kweenkqubo ezifanelekileyo, ukuba ukwaphulwa kwenkqubo kungahoywa, ukuba iindawo ezibiweyo iinqwelomoya ezigqityiweyo zingahoywa, njl.
NgoJuni ka-2014, u-Barnett wafaka isikhalazo kwi-Corporate Ethics ngokutyeshela iinkqubo, ukutyeshela ukwaphulwa kwenkqubo, enyanzela uBarnett ukuba "asebenze engwevu. iindawo,” kunye nokuba nomnye umphathi oza kuhlola uBarnett.
Nangona i-Corporate Ethics yasingqina isikhalazo sika-Barnett, akukho manyathelo athathiweyo ukusilungisa. Kwinyanga kamva, ephindezela izikhalazo zakhe, wathoba umgangatho wentsebenzo kaBarnett waba li-15 waza wamohlwaya. ngenxa yokungasebenzi "kwimimandla engwevu yeenkqubo," ukubhalwa ngokuphulwa kwenkqubo, kunye nokungavumi ukuvumela i-Manufacturing ukuba iphule iinkqubo. Ireyithingi ethotyiweyo nayo yayisekelwe kumarhe obuxoki avela Ubunkokeli uBarnett awayengavisisani noontanga bakhe.
18) Wathi akuva ukuba uBarnett wayebhalela uHR malunga nokulinganisa kwakhe, he woyikisa ngokutsala ii-imeyile zakhe.
19) NgoSeptemba 2014, uBarnett wafumanisa ukuba ngaphambili wayembeke kwiintsuku ezingama-60. isicwangciso sesenzo sokulungisa ngaphandle kokwazisa uBarnett. U-Barnett udibene noMphathi we-BSC we-Ethics kwaye wakhalaza malunga nokubekwa kwiSicwangciso sokuSebenza sokuLungisa iintsuku ezingama-60 ngaphandle kokwaziswa kunye nokusekelwe kulwazi olungeyonyani kunye nokumelwa kakubi. Wathi ngumba HR kwaye ukuba wayengenakwenza nto ngaloo nto. UBarnett uthumele i-BSC iVP yoMgangatho nge-imeyile, ecela intlanganiso kunye naye ukuze baxoxe ngeenkxalabo zikaBarnett neQela lobuNkokheli.
U-Barnett akazange afumane mpendulo okanye ukwamkelwa kwalo naluphi na uhlobo.
Funda isikhalazo esipheleleyo seNkundla.
Isikhalazo siyaqhubeka kumaphepha angama-32 kwaye sinokukhutshelwa ngokuchofoza apha.
