Clinton Fire Department, city employees participate in electrical safety training. Members of the Clinton Fire Department joined a majority of City of Clinton employees recently for an electrical safety training event held at the Clinton Benson Center. The training, provided by Evergy, was organized at the request of the City of Clinton's Safety Team. The team works alongside department heads to ensure employees are following proper safety practices across all departments. The two-hour program focused on educating participants about the potential hazards associated with electricity, particularly in various work environments city employees may encounter. The training included both a classroom lecture and a hands-on demonstration using Evergy's "hot trailer," which shows how electricity travels through objects and the potential impact on the human body. City officials say opportunities like this training help improve awareness and reinforce safe work habits for employees in the field. The Clinton Fire Department and city staff expressed appreciation to Evergy for providing the training. Evergy Public Safety Manager Andy Connell led the session, with assistance from Brent Harris and Chester Dibble. City leaders say the training is part of an ongoing effort to prioritize employee safety and preparedness across all departments.
