How Does Tri-State Electrical Work Safely?
Safety is vital for anyone who works with electricity, especially industrial and commercial electrical contractors. We here at Tri-State Electrical Contractors take it very seriously, and here are some of the ways we keep it that way.
Safety is Foremost for Everyone in the Company
Tri-State Electrical Contractors features an on-going safety training program that ensures that our management, employees, and independent contractors all follow the highest safety standards within our industry. We go out of our way to ensure that our entire organization works to prevent accidents and ensure that all employees remain safe.

Receive Regular Unannounced Safety Inspections
To maintain these high safety standards, we have partnered with CORE Safety Group, the leader in onsite safety inspection and management, to review Tri-State’s safety practices and audit them. They are an independent third party providing additional safety feedback to the management team.
CORE conducts regular unannounced site safety inspections to review the worksite conditions and whether safe practices are followed. CORE documents each inspection with a detailed finding report allowing us to improve our safety practices continually. This ensures that both our employees and our customers are safe when electrical work is underway.
Follow Current Best Practices and Latest Training
The commercial electrical industry is constantly changing. The development of new technologies and best practices requires continued education and training. CORE provides various OSHA-compliant training courses to ensure that our workforce is up-to-date with the latest techniques and information on a wide array of topics within the electrical industry.
