On 12/7/,81 Mr. Clarence _]!itslyll_ indicated in a conversatinn ha had with Inspector:
that;
' indicated he could nur up with no one wanting to talk with Mm but couTcT not
~
~~
t1ke the threats on his-life as a result of the General Foreman and Forecan being reduced to a Journcyman level.
1 On 12/10/81 at 3:30 p.m. I requested and Mr. Eart come to my of fice for a priva te conversation.
Upon their arrival I infomed' them I was folloying um on a conversation Mr.
Mit che]I had inforned ce_o_f that_ he had uith paragraph and asked I stated the above if in fact he hac t>een caserving any individuals not vanting to talk with him in the perforrance of his duties or if he had anyone take a threat towards him personally, his family or his property.
stated he had not experienced any of the above hostilities and his cocoent was cade as a result of the co=ments that a couple of the Q.C. Inspectors had made to him, to the effect, the Field is really upset with you.
I asked to inform me, if he ever esperienced any hostilities from any individual in regards to his performance of duties.
stated he was
^ very sorr%something ifke that had to_ happen to the Forc=an and Generbl Forenan.
~
I s ta t ed I regretted it~~also,'~ but fro = a total canagement~ stand point believed the actions tak,en were warranted in view of the serious situation which we are experiencing vith our Quality Control ef fort.s on this project.
The biggest problem being Supervision not paying attention to the details and procedures which they are responsible to observe and implement.
I asked if there were any other itees of which I chould be aware.
centioned an ethnic slur that he heard over the Field P. A. that he took personally but that the slur did not mention his name or Q.C. af filiation.
He further stated he appreciated our conversation and understood the whole situation =uch hetter.
I re-caphasized the f act I vould not tolerate any individual harassing or preventing Quality Control personnel from doing their job and would like to be personally inforned it it should ever occur.
The discussion ended at approximately 3:25 p.m.
