If she cares which she most probably is, she / experienced people in charge should put this fact into project planning. But there are limits and nobody sees future, dont expect impossible miracles just because it would be nice.

I guess if you use it for very specific cuts where there is no bone or anything hard and nothing more, you can keep it cca safe. To a layman, or expert pro chef layman, good steel is enough, durable, worry free, cheap.
