Is Your Business Safe?
At Mr. Electric the safety and security of you and your employees is our first priority. We also want to be sure that we take all the steps necessary to protect your business. The more information and knowledge about electrical safety we can provide our customers and the public, the better. This is why we partner with Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI). We want to ensure that we provide the consumer with accurate and up to date electrical safety and security information.
“Knowledge can save your life,” said ESFI President Brett C. Brenner. “If you know the signs of an overloaded electrical circuit or how to test a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet, you can prevent electrocution or electrical fires.”
Electrical fires, electrocution and electric shock injuries are the most common threats in regards to your electrical safety.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 278 workers died from electrocutions while at work in 1999. That accounts for almost 5% of all on-the-job fatalities that year. These deaths are all the more tragic because they could have been prevented.
Mr. Electric takes all the precautions to help you prevent electrical fires or electric shock due to faulty wires or appliances. This is why we provide a complimentary safety checkup with every service call.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety reports that 411 people died from electrocution in 2001.
