Safety and health is a way of life, both at home and at work. Without question, it is everyone’s responsibility to ensure a safe and healthy environment. Efforts are focused on improving the safe behaviors of Polk County RPPD employees and their customers. Polk County RPPD employees believe that safety comes first! By routine training and practicing safety on a daily basis, employees develop a habit of safety not only at work but also in their personal lives. We feel that accidents can be reduced or eliminated through safe work habits.
Electrical safety is everyone’s responsibility, not just PCRPPD employees’. Educating the public about electric use, safety, and potential hazards is a very important part of our safety program.
Educating the youth in communities within our service area is also very important. We coordinate safety programs at the six schools in the service area. Safety demonstrations are also given to 4-H groups, industrial arts classes, or adult groups.
