Safety Meetings
As part of our continuing public safety educational program, Wisconsin Public Service offers annual excavators and contractors meetings. The purpose is to educate the public and inform them of any statute, operating changes or conditions, which might impact their operations. The goal is to enable customers, the public, appropriate government organizations and persons engaged in excavation or overhead related activities to recognize potential dangers working near gas and electric facilities.
These annual meetings are co-sponsored by several utilities and Diggers Hotline. It is a unique opportunity to get important safety messages to all businesses, contractors, excavators and utilities who do outdoor work to talk about damage prevention, public safety, procedures and policies related to excavation and overhead work near utility facilities.
These meetings are very informative and provide opportunities to talk with the utility workers and operators for details on a project that you may be planning. Free safety information is also provided for all attendees. To find out more information about dates, times, and locations, please visit www.diggershotline.com. You can also select the meeting of your choice and pre-register you and your employees online.
Please contact your local Community Relations Leader with any questions.
