[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 72786, member: 1912"] I agree. Each of us based on our background or personal experience will respond to the details differently. I appreciate the vote of confidence but I really was not too disturbed by trick ponys response which is why i joked back. ERI results consistently show our people do not trust management and especially upper management. There is a chance ( slim of course :D )we actually may have done something to earn that lack of trust. One of the biggest selling battles we face is the avoidable / fault issue. There are cases where a police officer says our driver was not at fault but we say he was not at fault but did not do everything he should have to prevent the accident from happening. In the work group an issue like this can sometimes cause a lack of trust to no fault of management. We can have rock solid reasons why we feel the driver is at fault. But the driver talks to his coworkers and sugercoats or denys responsibility. At that point we can't really rebut everything he says for confidentiality reasons. You then depend on the steward / BA / Safety committe to set the story straight. The steward can't obviously support the discharge of a driver but its important he at least has a good understanding of the issues involved. I've seen cases where we actively involved the steward in the accident investigation which I think is a great idea especially when dealing with fatalities. [/QUOTE]
