Elliot Services Recognized with 2023 IEC National Safety Award

Elliot Services and the Davis H. Elliot Company were awarded a 2023 IEC National Safety Award this past October at the 2023 SPARK Convention in Dallas, Texas. According to the IEC website, “The IEC Safety Award recognizes companies that excel beyond Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recordable incidence rates. Recipient companies have taken safety beyond traditional programs. Our analysis will take into account important safety program components including management commitment, safety committee participation, investigation of incidents/near misses, employee involvement, worksite auditing for unsafe acts and conditions, recognition of safe actions, and recordable rates.”

Elliot Services, along with its parent company, Davis H. Elliot Company, have long been recognized as leaders in Safety & Training throughout the industry. Elliot’s core values of Target Zero, Human Performance, and Servant Leadership are the foundation for each program that is introduced. Elliot is committed to excellence through continuous improvement in Safety, Quality, and Productivity.

About IEC:

Founded in 1957 as the Associated Independent Electrical Contractors of America, the primary goal of the original association was to consider and deal with, by all lawful means, common problems of management, distribution, employment, and financial functions of the electrical construction industry; to foster cooperation in advancing the common purposes of its members; and to promote activities that enabled the industry to advance with the greatest economy and efficiency.

The association’s first offices were located in Texas, and in 1962, IEC was granted a certificate of incorporation. IEC convinced the U.S. Department of Labor to adopt national pattern standards of Apprenticeship and Training, and for the first time, registered apprenticeship was recognized across the country for those adopting the “Open Shop” or “Merit Shop” philosophy.

IEC has now grown into an influential 52-chapter association representing more than 3,600 company members and nearly 80,000 electrical workers. IEC has expanded its alliance to include nearly 14,000 apprentices who are in the process of learning to become prominent and productive electricians.

The association will continue to expand its services to members and serve as a strong voice for independent electrical and systems contractors on the many issues that affect the industry.
