论工程技术人员的工程举报

作为工程伦理学研究中的一个重点问题和当今世界普遍关注的热点问题,工程举报是从事工程活动的工程技术人员在面临组织利益与公众利益相矛盾时所采取的一种不得已的维护公众利益的手段.工程举报者在选择举报时要跨越一系列的障碍:组织的制约、利益保障机制的缺失以及社会文化的抵制等.只有正确认识工程技术活动中的工程举报行为,对举报者利益给予应有的保护,才能更好地维护公众利益,真正地应用工程技术造福人类.

On Engineer's Behavior to Blow the Whistle on Flawed Projects

Whether an engineer's behavior to blow the whistle on flawed objects is legal and reasonable is a key part to engineering ethics and also a hot issue that is concerned with the sci-tech personnel.Such a behavior is regarded as the necessary means an engineer has to adopt so as to protect public interests when he is facing a contradiction between the interests of an organization that employed him and public interests.He has to cross several hurdles if he decides to blow the whistle on the hidden troubles found in an engineering project,such as the restriction the organization takes up,lack of guarantee mechanism for legal interests and traditionally social/cultural boycott.So,it is necessary for an engineer to understand consciously the importance of aforementioned behavior,and his interests should be protected from any loss if he did the behavior.Public interests are therefore protected more efficiently,and engineering/technology can thus bring benefit to the people.
