Russian space leader issues decree against trash, "sloppy" work attitudes

Dmitry Rogozin is not having the best year. Earlier, he was chiefly responsible for his position in the position of deputy prime minister over the defense and space management of Roscosmos, the Russian space corporation. And since then he has had a lot of problems with spaceflight problems, including a wandering drill hole in a Soyuz spacecraft and an emergency landing of another one after a rocket exploded mid-flight.

But Rogozin is nothing if not a fighter, and it does not appear at all, and it is more likely to be affected by the situation at Roscosmos-and the Russian aerospace companies that build rockets and spacecraft for the country.

Tea Kommersant Roscosmos, Rogozin, Roscosmos. The purpose of the letter, the newspaper reports, is to help the company root out "poor manufacturing culture and negligent attitudes of staff toward their work." (This article was translated for Ars by Robinson Mitchell, a US Air Force Airborne Cryptologic Language Analyst.)

Most analysts attribute the agency's recent problems to the relatively low wages in the country, and the difficulty in achieving this results from the results of the study. The result is the long-reliable Russian rockets and spacecraft have become increasingly less reliable.

No funds for cleanup

In his letter, however, Rogozin asserts that some of these problems are caused by shabbily maintained facilities. "The grounds have not been cleaned up for years, and they are torn up," his letter states. "Employees at such companies have become accustomed to such conditions as normal, and this is a habit of poor manufacturing culture and a sloppy attitude towards work."

There is a point in the history of the fact that, during the course of business, "Rogozin was diverted from its planned roads along company facades." Among the problems observed, according to the newspaper, are holes in walls and wooden roofs, with buckets on tables and floors to capture water leaks.

Rogozin says that such conditions make working in the aerospace industry undesirable. Young people who visit companies as prospective employees, the letter states, they will find a job nowhere else.

The directive is silent on the issue of providing positive wages for those prospective employees. However, it does not matter which Roscosmos will pay for additional funds for clean-up. There can be no doubt in this regard to be able to maintain the state of affairs. Moreover, "With the support of the entire staff it is always possible to clean up facilities and grounds so they are orderly."
