Safety & Security
Unwavering Commitment to Safety
Safety is everything. Few industries pose greater inherent hazards than ours, so the safety of our workers, facilities and the public are a priority.
Our Safety Practices Include:
- Annual safety meetings for all employees and contractors
- Ongoing safety training and a comprehensive safety handbook
- Industry-standard protective equipment
- Safety event reporting and continuous improvements
When it comes to safety, there are no shortcuts. This means everyone goes home at the end of the day, injury-free.
Power Grid Security
The power grid is complex in design and function. This complexity can make it vulnerable to damage from natural events such as severe storms, or malicious actions such as cyber and physical attacks.
Grid security is a big responsibility. To meet the challenge of keeping electricity flowing to our customers, ITC works with partners to help us lessen the risk and safeguard the grid with security and resilience measures.
