This is a very interesting thread. My tuppence worth is simply that no matter what industry or profession is involved, the problem is simply the setting of "targets".
Worry over losing your job means "targets" can change the way someone does their job.
The banking and insurance business are other prime examples of targets making people do things they wouldn't normally do, or omit things they know they ought to do.
Targets are evil. I won't bore you with examples, but much misery has been caused by them, and greed and the imposition of targets caused the crash of 2008, and the scandal of mis-sold endowment policies is further clear evidence. Those scandals were bad enough, with financial ruin for many...in your profession as electricians death is a possible consequence...
