Preventing accidents before they happen

Education is key to ensuring that our emergency responders and construction workers understand the hazards and dangers they can face while responding to emergencies in our community or working to build homes and businesses within it. Our mission is to deliver affordable, reliable, safe electricity and outstanding member services, and we would like to offer you our services that will help you and MTE meet our mission.

Emergency Responder Safety

Education is key to making sure that our Emergency Responders understand some of the hazards and dangers they can find themselves in as they respond to help the communities they serve. Our MTE Safety team has developed a safety presentation that will help First Responders to recognize some of the challenges they might face when on the scene of a vehicle accident with downed power lines or the scene of a structure fire in their community. We customize each educational session to meet your needs. We provide Roll Call, In-Service Training or New Recruit classes that will meet the needs of your request. If you are a First Aid Responder or in charge of your company’s training requirements, this educational conversation will meet your needs and hopefully bring some awareness to electrical hazards.  If you are a First Aid Responder or in charge of your company’s training requirements, this educational conversation will meet your needs and hopefully raise awareness of electrical hazards.

Construction Worker Safety

Education is key to making sure that our construction workers understand some of the hazards and dangers that are present on the job sites where they work every day. In this classroom or job site setting, we will discuss basic electrical equipment, hazards associated with downed power lines and any other questions about the electrical grid. We can discuss site setup before you begin work and hopefully mitigate some of the dangers your teammates could face as they work at different worksites across the MTE footprint. We understand how important it is for you to protect your most valuable assets, and we are here to help ensure they go home safely at the end of the workday. This educational class might also be a good fit for heavy equipment & construction equipment rental companies. It just depends on your specific needs. We always welcome a safety conversation for those working on our system.
