20 inspectors suspended over GPS
Public safety chief metes out discipline
By Andrea Estes, Globe Staff

The Massachusetts public safety commissioner yesterday suspended 20
state building and engineering inspectors for refusing to accept
cellphones equipped with global positioning systems.

Only two inspectors accepted the phones; another two were out on
vacation when Commissioner Thomas Gatzunis tried to distribute the
phones, which supervisors want to use to keep track of the inspectors
during the work day.
