We are the Safest, Most Productive, Highest Skilled Workers

While on my visit to a Local 1-2 System of Safety class at the Con Ed Learning Center in Queens, NY, I stopped at a work site and observed the members of Local 1-2’s Construction Services Group working on a new gas transmission project in the streets of Astoria Queens. Our brothers and sisters had the job site in these difficult city conditions set up safely and securely, not just for themselves, but also for the public. I observed them working, following all rules and regulations, and communicating with each other like a well-oiled machine. They are rebuilding the city’s infrastructure in a safe and professional way — once again showing that we are the safest, most productive, highest skilled workers in the world.
