12 THE DAVEY BULLETIN | January/February 2022 DUKE CAROLINA ACCOUNT PASSED SAFETY MILESTONE Congratulations to the employees who worked on super- visor Willie Richardson's work group on the Duke Energy South and Central Transmission account for achieving more than 2,000 days without an OSHA recordable incident. The employees on this account performed all manual climbing for line clearance work with little or no equipment assistance due to the remote nature of the utility rights-of- way they maintained in the Asheville, North Carolina, area. Josh Pressley, area manager, said there are two employees in the crews with 20 years of service at Davey and another with 17 – all of whom have worked together since their first days with the company. "So, it's more or less like they are working with their family, and that extends to the rest of the crew members," Pressley said. "It's their mindset. They're not going to risk a shortcut. Richardson, their supervisor, Gary Jones, who was also a senior supervisor on this account, and others were all instrumental in building the safety culture keeping safety-minded employees on the crews." Davey Utility crews for supervisor Willie Richardson on the Duke Energy South and Central Transmission account reached more than 2,000 incident-free days since in 2021. Pictured above, from left, are groundman Jacqua Laney, foreman Sujel Aguilar, foreman Jose Guevara and trimmer Milton Machuca, along with some of the mountainous terrain the crews worked on. A total 68 employees were working on the account when Richardson's work group reached the 2,000 days milestone.
