Concept Category
Principle
Concreteexpression
Engineer Intern A's failure to report the five-year history of missed inspections to Engineer B represents a failure of professional accountability — having discovered the full scope of the problem through diligent records review, Engineer Intern A bore responsibility for communicating that full scope rather than providing a partial report that obscured the systemic nature of the failure

Importance
high
Interpretation
Professional accountability requires that engineers take responsibility not only for what they report but for the completeness and accuracy of the picture their reports convey; partial reporting that omits material aggravating facts is a form of accountability failure
