Geisha Williams, PG&E Executive Vice President for Electric Operations, visited IBEW 1245 headquarters on Aug 20. to discuss current issues with members working in Electric Operations and IBEW staff.
She said the backlog of deferred maintenance tags will be completed by the end of 2013, and that the company’s goal is to stay current on compliance tags going forward. The company is also on track to complete the pole replacement annual objective on time this December.
Williams also commented on the company’s decreased emphasis on disciplinary action for work procedure mistakes, hoping that open communication between employees and supervisors is a more productive course for reducing safety-related issues.
