Foran Glennon Partner Michael Sever recently discussed engineering ethics, detailing potential pitfalls and best practices for avoiding risk in a presentation for the Structural Engineers Association of Illinois (SEAOI).
In the presentation, “Ethics for Engineers,” which took place virtually on Thursday, November 5, Michael broke down the ethical requirements under state law for structural engineers in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana. He analyzed how issues could lead to litigation, professional discipline, or the endangerment of the health, safety, and welfare of the community.
