IEC is committed to helping its members, their employees, and their businesses stay healthy and safe.
As part of this commitment, IEC has developed top-notch safety-related tools and resources like the Toolbox Talks, the Jobsite Safety Handbook, and the Safety Manual Guidelines to help IEC members train their workers on safety protocols that help reduce injuries on the jobsite.
IEC has formed an alliance with the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to help prevent workplace injuries, illnesses, and fatalities.
