Transocean Rig Explosion - Read the document workers were asked to sign


I've said that Transocean and BP would do anything they could to limit their legal responsibility to their own employees and urged injured crewmembers not to sign ANYTHING the company gave them.

Now I can give you proof.

Click here to read the release Transocean was asking Deepwater Horizon crewmembers to sign

The workers were being asked to sign this document:

1.  Before they got to see their family;

2.  While they were still likely in shock;

3.  While the rig was still on fire and brave people were trying to rescue other workers and put out the fire on the rig; and

4.  Before the crewmembers had been given medical treatment beyond basic first aid.

You've got to wonder why Transocean and BP were so worried about their legal exposure that they would put efforts into trying to trick and deceive crewmembers while the Deepwater Horizon was still engulfed in flames?

Why weren't the companies devoting 100% of their time, energy, and effort to the rescue effort?
