The investigation discovered a “disconnect” between normal employees and senior management, as well as indications that safety-related behaviors and messaging were not being applied consistently throughout the organization.

Boeing promised to examine the results.
“We’ve made significant progress in creating a safety culture that encourages and enables every employee to speak up. However, more work needs to be done, the business stated.

Years after the 2018 and 2019 crashes, which claimed 346 lives and prompted allegations that Boeing had prioritized profits over safety while producing its aircraft, the incident, which just missed causing major damage, raised concerns about Boeing’s production procedures.
