Structural Engineers Association Southern (SRAOSC) California Risky Business Breakfast
Saunders Construction took advantage of the opportunity to sponsor the “Risky Business Breakfast” hosted by SEAOSC. The morning discussion focused on risk management and protecting the future of engineers’ careers.
The speakers consisted of Jeff Crosier (Senior Principal) Miyamoto International, Vida Tarassoly (President) Rubicon Engineering Co. and Karen Thorp (Account Executive) Assured Partners with Maria Mohammed (Project Engineer) Structural Focus moderating the panel.
The panel discussed the following and answered several questions making the breakfast a great success.

– standard of care
– common missteps that lead to lawsuits
– personal liability versus firm liability
