Questions to Discuss from this BofA tragedy
First of all, RIP to the associate. We should do what we can to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again and ask ourselves the following questions:
- From what I know, when an associate works long hours, they get logged into the system and emails go out to (at a minimum) the staffer and group head flagging the long hours, and clearly nothing was done. This was an internal policy implemented by the company after the intern’s tragic death in 2013. Will this paper trail be investigated? If not, why?
- It’s been 4+ days and NOT ONE mainstream media outlet (cnbc, wsj, NYT, etc) has reported on this. Why not?
- There was overwhelming public support from the veteran community 1-2 days after the tragedy. At least a few individuals posted on LinkedIn demanding an investigation and full accountability. These posts have since been deleted. Why?
- The medical examiner claimed “natural causes” for his death. This is equivalent to someone getting hit over the head with a brick, and people claiming he died of “natural causes” because he suffered head trauma. Will BofA be able to wiggle out of this legally? If so, it will essentially be impossible to ever link someone’s death to overworking.
Hopefully, for everyone’s sake, this does not get swept under the rug.
