In today's business climate, balancing the benefits of dynamic growth with issues of corporate responsibility is a significant task. Penn Line Service recognizes the importance of this balance with its Corporate Service Group.

     The Corporate Service Group consolidates issues of personnel, risk management and government compliance under a single administrative umbrella to ensure consistently safe, reliable operations for each division. Functioning as a "one-stop" resource and support arm for field operations, Corporate Services integrates programs in occupational safety and health, state and federal government regulation, employee relations and quality control for Penn Line Service and its subsidiary and affiliate companies.

     Among the specific programs managed by Corporate Services are:

• Specialized safety and health programs which address the activities and risks unique to each operation. Two full-time field safety directors assigned to a multi-state territory conduct field audits, monitor crew activity and equipment integrity, and provide job-specific training and instruction.

• A comprehensive program of drug and alcohol testing which mandates pre-employment and random testing for every operations unit.
• A far-reaching fleet safety program which ensures that all vehicles meet tough performance standards set by the company. This program includes annual dielectrical testing of aerial lift units to ensure their stability around power lines.
• Compliance with U. S. Department of Transportation public safety regulations covering commercial drivers.
• A sophisticated hearing conservation program which combines annual OSHA-mandated audiometric testing with job site noise level monitoring and prescribed hearing protection.
• EEO Administration including issues of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
