l The DI QC inspector was interviewed and stated that he had been the subject of l

a meeting wherein a DI senior QC supervisor made intimidating statements to him, including the statement, " Cooperate with construction." The DI QC inspector stated that he performed all his inspection duties in a proper manner; however.

l he voluntarily terminated his employment 23 days after the date the alleged intimidation occurred because he believed that his freedom to report l

nonconforming conditions had been eliminated.

% :n seMoe QC supervisor stated that statements Mke, "Cemara:e ute ms mmon* or any other staternents,of that type would, if' stated b,t a suceniser in nts position, be intimidating t} QC personnel.

Subsequently, this same 01 senior QC supervisor was reinterviewed at his own request the next day and admitted mating the following statement to the DI QC inspector in question, "There is no room in this organi?ation for people who

\\

/

i cannot work together;" however, he denied making the statement, " Cooperate with construction." The DI senior QC supervisor denied attempting to intimidate the DI QC ' inspector, even though he acknowledged that a statement like " cooperate with construction" is an intimidating statement.
