Nuclear Regulators Ding Firm For Subpar Safety Culture
Chicago Bridge & Iron is under increasing scrutiny from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. In the past month, the company division formerly part of Shaw Group has been cited for a poor safety culture at a Louisiana facility and for firing an employee who raised a safety concern at another site.
"We take these matters very seriously. CB&I will take immediate action to create and promote a healthy safety culture where all employees feel open to identify issues and express concerns," said CB&I spokeswoman Gentry Brann of the citations. "Our uncompromising focus is on safety, quality and an open work environment. It is not only CB&I's policy, but our practice."
