PSC's Annual Luncheon a Success!!

The Council held its Annual Luncheon on Tuesday March 4 and had over 200 attendees! Billy Robbins with "Hooked on Safety" gave a dynamic presentation on "accident free workplaces and changing attitudes to produce safety". He spoke on his own avoidable accident in 1980, where while working on an aerial cable he made contact with a 7200-volt power line resulting in the amputation of both his hands.

What one luncheon attendee said about the presentation...

"What I really liked about Billy's presentation is that he not only made clear the importance of safety, but he really spoke to the characteristics of leadership, that everyone can be a leader, the importance of setting clear expectations from the top down, and the power of personal choice. These are ideals and concepts everyone of us can use in every aspect of our work and private life's."
