  • Potentially Dangerous Workmanship

    Hi
    Just looking for a bit of advice. The company I work for has undertaken a large network installation for a site. The network communicates between many safety critical systems and failure could result in serious consequences. I believe the installation is not fit for purpose due to the poor quality of certain protective enclosures. Who can I tell about this without getting into legal problems, my company are not interested in hearing about it, my supervisors comment was `too late now'. Happy to answer any further questions but don't want to get too specific for obvious reasons.
    Thanks

    Whatever people may say, whistleblowing can have adverse consequences. But here is a page on the government website.

    Litigants in Person should download and read the Judiciary's handbook for litigants in person: https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/..._in_Person.pdf

      Thanks for the reply but I've looked at this and it's so complicated as to almost stop people bothering to whistle blow.
      I can't just walk away from this though - I would go as far on here to say that the critical systems are radar, instrument landing systems and the tower at an airport.
