Our written “Emergency Action Plan” includes evacuation routing as well as assembly procedures. Jobsite Safety Specific manuals are published for each of our projects and include crisis management procedures in addition to a specific jobsite hazard analysis.

Prime Electric has implemented a safety incentive award program. Annual cash and prizes are distributed throughout the field to our individuals who remain injury free as well as a special drawing in which an all expense paid trip to a tropical resort is given away. Employees also receive individual recognition for their continued efforts to remain injury free and participate in safety training.
Furthermore Prime’s safety program policies exceed OSHA and WA State L&I regulations. With strict eye protection and PPE requirements, eye injurys have virtually been reduced to zero.
