Decision question
After the client refused on cost grounds to hire a full-time on-site project representative for a foreseeably dangerous construction phase, should Engineer A proceed with the work, persist with graduated escalation before withdrawing, or withdraw immediately from the engagement?
Focus
Engineer A Construction Phase Safety Staffing: Insistence, Escalation, or Withdrawal After Client Refusal
Option1
Continue work on the project after making a single recommendation for an on-site representative, treating the client's cost-based refusal as a final client decision within the client's authority, without further escalation or withdrawal.
Option2
Reiterate the safety necessity in explicit written terms, formally notify the client that the project cannot be safely executed without the on-site representative, issue a conditional ultimatum making continued participation contingent on client agreement, and withdraw from the engagement only after exhausting that graduated escalation sequence and confirming the client's refusal remains firm.
Option3
Treat the client's first cost-based refusal of the safety recommendation as a firm and final rejection, withdraw from the engagement immediately without further escalation, and decline to advance the construction phase under any circumstances without the required on-site representative.
