Are they really? In situations like this, where the solution is an obvious if expensive one. Then a management team would be opening themselves up massively if they acknowledge a problem and then don't do everything in their power to solve it as fast as possible.......

Let's put it this way, you wouldn't even need a good lawyer to get a huge payout if you had been badly affected by a fumes event in this case. You'd need to prove that it was the cause of any health issues, but again even Lionel Hutz could do that.

So how is not fixing this problem going to help the company? You constantly state that there isn't a "big" problem, but I will ask you what you think is. Do a certain number of your colleagues need to be hospitalised per year? Is it a fallacy until you find yourself with breathing problems or psychological issues after years of exposure to the nasties that have been proven to come out of these engines? Define when something like this becomes "serious".

You may not care about your own health, but others do care about theirs.
Fumes are the big issue that could seriously damage this whole industry if not tackled sensibly and so far most management teams seem to have put their collective fingers in their ears and are running around shouting "La La La I'm not listening" whilst hoping no-one notices it.

Yep, that'll fix it.........
