Mr. Clement Williams, general manager of SKELEC, expressed that one of the company\u2019s main priorities is providing a safe work environment for its staff and customers. \u201cIn our line of work of producing and distributing electricity, safety is crucial, as such it was imperative that the company onboard a safety and security manager to advance SKELEC\u2019s safety and security measures.
