SAFETY- It's a word we can live by!

At Newcomb Electric, our commitment to safety manifests itself in several unique and important ways. The programs that we have developed all stem from the dedication to the concept that “Providing a safe workplace…is simply the right thing to do!”

  • Raising Safety Awareness: We believe that the best way to achieve a truly effective safety program is to empower all employees with knowledge that they can use to make wise decisions for themselves. This requires much more than merely teaching rules and regulations. At Newcomb Electric we take the time and make the effort to explain the “Why” behind the rules. The result has been a truly educated workforce that understands that “working safely really is the smart thing to do!”
  • Accountability: At Newcomb Electric, “accountability” is much more than just a trendy buzzword. It is manifested in a written “Accountability Program” that requires management at all levels, including the very top management, to submit timely reports that address detailed and specific safety issues for which they are held accountable. It doesn't just stop there either. These reports are compiled and “audited” for compliance with the program's standards. Holding all employees accountable for their actions is taken very seriously.
  • Hot Work Policy: Sometimes in the electrical business we are called upon to do work that is exceptionally dangerous. Our written “Hot Work Policy” has become a model program, so impressive, that it has been adopted by many of our large industrial customers as their own. It is a program that is based on two fundamental principals:

    One: It is infinitely smarter to explore every possible means of de-energizing systems than to work them “hot”.

    Two: We are professionals. If systems must be worked hot, we will take every precaution to protect our employees and the interests of our customers.




The credo of our Hot Work Policy is simple.

There is no task more important or more rewarding than sending our employees' home healthy and injury free every night!

Good Safety is Good Business. It's good for us…and good for our customers.
