- ams6110 8y agoAerospace industry has a deeply engrained culture of safety, and improving from failure. Construction industry has a history of building to bare minimum requirements, organized crime involvement, corruption, and passing the buck when anything goes wrong.
- int_19h 8y agoI dunno, I'd say there's a very long tradition of safety in construction. "If a builder builds a house for someone, and does not construct it properly, and the house which he built falls in and kills its owner, then that builder shall be put to death." (Code of Hammurabi)
- bostik 8y agoI look at that the other way. The need for effective regulation and proper enforcement come with a long tradition in construction business.
