4 Allied Construction has a contract for the construction of a power plant in a foreign country. The workforce employed on the project contains workers from multiple countries. The project superintendent noticed that several of the steel workers working on the roof of the plant were not wearing hard hats or gloves. Since the country in which the plant is being constructed has no workplace safety regulations, the superintendent chose to ignore the lack of safety equipment.

 Were the actions of the superintendent ethical?

 How would you have handled the situation?
