"The FWEA Safety Committee is dedicated to building a culture of safety through training, education, and recognition. We strive to ensure an incident free industry by improving hazard recognition skills, ensuring employees return home safe daily and that the communities in which we work and live remain hazard free."
The Safety Awards are for utilities who maintain exemplary safety programs. Facilities from all over the state of Florida compete for the opportunity to receive a plaque recognizing the excellent safety programs that are in place all over our state.
Awards will be presented during the FWRC WEF Awards, Lifetime Membership Presentation,
and FWEA Awards Presentation May 4 - 7, 2025
