I doubt the people at the lower levels want to sign off on work they know to be unsafe.
They do it all the time. It's a way to look like a team player. It's a way to get off inspections and cut the shift short.
High and low, humans are stupid. Those at the top just get more chances to REALLY fuck things up.

> It's a way to look like a team player.
That just repeats what I said about: Because they are pressured or coerced into doing so.
Although it may be their direct co-workers.
The culture needs to be that if it isn't safe, being a team player is to report it and not sign off on it. It's only the MBAs that want it to get done NOW. When the shift ends, the shift ends. Whether something you are inspecting is safe or not should not affect an inspector's shift.
Inspectors of all people would not sign off on unsafe work unless under pressure to do so.
