Electrical Safety Awareness

ABOUT THE MEETING:       Electrical accidents can cause burns, shocks and electrocution, and without the proper electrical safety program these accidents can be fatal.  Over 350 electrical-related fatalities occur each year. For employers, engineers, and safety managers, creating a workplace where team members know how to approach electrical hazards is a top priority. NFPA 70E offers standards and guidelines to build out an effective electrical safety program and provides procedures for energized work to be performed, based on electrical safety rules established by OSHA.
