Class

http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#SubconsultantScope-ConstrainedSafetyEscalationPathwayState
Definition
State in which a subconsultant engineer, operating under a limited-scope engagement through a prime contractor, has discovered a safety-relevant condition and reported it through the client chain, but the client chain has suppressed the finding — leaving the subconsultant with no remaining internal escalation pathway and facing the question of whether to escalate directly to an independent public authority, potentially bypassing the prime contractor and public agency that have already been informed and chosen to suppress the information.
