Joe,
...
You also fail to mention that a lot (most?) of the electrocutions come not from electrical workers, but accidental contact from other trades. There is nothing we can do to prevent stupidity.
I mentioned previously that I work in telecom. At work we have weekly (Monday morning) safety meetings, and this week was electricity. We were told in no uncertain terms that ANYTHING 120V or more shouldn't be touched, ANY problems with that part of the install should be reported to the electricians. No exceptions! (The meeting was much more detailed, this was the relevant highlight)
I must say I agree, and think we need more employers that care.
