Scenario: Speed vs Safety Expectations
Kayla is helping install solar panels on a commercial roof. The crew is behind schedule because of weather delays. One worker suggests skipping part of the safety checklist to “catch up.” Kayla feels uncomfortable because she knows the checklist exists to prevent accidents. At the same time, she understands the pressure to finish on time and avoid extra costs. Kayla feels stuck between wanting to help the team and wanting to stay safe. She must decide how to respond without creating conflict or slowing the project unnecessarily.
