English term

not to mention moral problems

English to Italian Tech/Engineering Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng RUST PREVENTION IN MARITIME INDUSTRY
Il contesto è: " The repair and replacement of rust-damaged equipment costs the maritime industry many millions of dollars each year; and increased maintenance translates into ineffective use of time and manpower, not to mention moral problems"
"problemi morali" in questo contesto non mi suona bene. Qualche suggerimento?

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

per non parlare delle problematiche deontologiche/ di etica professionale

effettivamente non è molto chiaro a cosa si riferisca... forse bisognerebbe capire quale sia lo scopo di questo testo

eventualmente, visto che si tratta di "industry" si potrebbe ampliare aggiungendo appunto "etica professionale" o deontologia...

Scusami, ho visto adesso che si parla di "rust prevention"...

Magari vogliono sottolineare il fatto che tra i "doveri" ci sia anche quello di mantenere in perfetto stato - senza ruggine, per esempio - l'equipment...
