FATAL FACT: Over 40% of all electrocution deaths occur during construction work!
“How does electricity affect my body?”
Current may travel through a worker's body, causing electrical burns or death. Even when the power system is properly grounded, electrical equipment can instantly change from safe to hazardous because of extreme conditions and rough treatment. Have you ever seen an electrical burn? You are fortunate if you have not; but if you are one of those who have seen first hand the effect of what electricity can do to the human you know that electricity is a force that must be taken seriously.
“Okay so how do I protect myself?”
Avoid penetrating or excavating around existing electrical lines.
Visually inspect electrical equipment before use. Take any defective equipment out of service.
Ground all power supply systems, electrical circuits, and electrical equipment.
Frequently inspect electrical systems to insure that the path to ground is continuous.
Do not remove ground prongs from cord and plug-connected equipment or extension cords.
Use double-insulated tools or those equipped with three prong plugs.
Avoid standing in wet areas when using any electrical power tools.

Striving for Excellence!

Leading by Example: Employees of the month

Turner has recognized Conco’s “Rod Busters” Juan Gonzalez, Salvador Mendoza, Julio Gonzalez, Aurelio Ochoa, Jesus Rodriguez, and Thomas Orona. “Not only do they manage their high risk work safely, their attitude and professionalism is above reproach. I had to do something to let them know I appreciated their stellar performance, so I surprised them with a new pair of the best iron worker pliers I could find”

This story can fit 150-200 words.
One benefit of using your newsletter as a promotional tool is that you can reuse content from other marketing materials, such as press releases, market studies, and reports.
While your main goal of distributing a newsletter might be to sell your product or service, the key to a successful newsletter is making it useful to your readers.
A great way to add useful content to your newsletter is to develop and write your own articles, or include a calendar of upcoming events or a special offer that promotes a new product.
You can also research articles or find “filler” articles by accessing the World Wide Web. You can write about a variety of topics but try to keep your articles short.
Much of the content you put in your newsletter can also be used for your Web site. Microsoft Publisher offers a simple way to convert your newsletter to a Web publication. So, when you’re finished writing your newsletter, convert it to a Web site and post it.

This story can fit 75-125 words.
Selecting pictures or graphics is an important part of adding content to your newsletter.
Think about your article and ask yourself if the picture supports or enhances the message you’re trying to convey. Avoid selecting images that appear to be out of context.
Microsoft Publisher includes thousands of clip art images from which you can choose and import into your newsletter. There are also several tools you can use to draw shapes and symbols.
Once you have chosen an image, place it close to the article. Be sure to place the caption of the image near the image.

This story can fit 100-150 words.
The subject matter that appears in newsletters is virtually endless. You can include stories that focus on current technologies or innovations in your field.
You may also want to note business or economic trends, or make predictions for your customers or clients.
If the newsletter is distributed internally, you might comment upon new procedures or improvements to the business. Sales figures or earnings will show how your business is growing.
Some newsletters include a column that is updated every issue, for instance, an advice column, a book review, a letter from the president, or an editorial. You can also profile new employees or top customers or vendors.

This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and mailed, this story will appear on the back. So, it’s a good idea to make it easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either compile questions that you’ve received since the last edition or you can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way to give your newsletter a personal touch. If your organization is small, you may want to list the names of all employees.
If you have any prices of standard products or services, you can include a listing of those here. You may want to refer your readers to any other forms of communication that you’ve created for your organization.
You can also use this space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event, such as a breakfast meeting for vendors every third Tuesday of the month, or a biannual charity auction.
If space is available, this is a good place to insert a clip art image or some other graphic.
