Does YOUR life and disability insurance plan have an exclusion such as this? "There will be no benefits for a disability or loss that is caused or contributed to by an act or incident of war, declared or undeclared." Employees should know where they are going and what's at stake.  Employers should advise their employees of their coverage before assigning them to duties.

and when you lose, you're left with less...and you never really forget."  c2006   ENGsafety.com 

Make moments to stay safe!     The folks in Atlanta had quite a lucky circumstance after the mast on their truck was left up and they drove away.         Look at the size of the wires and support structures....of course, AFTER the accident everybody's an expert, but we all have to be experts BEFORE the truck is moved.     The old saying: "WALK AROUND, WALK AWAY, LOOK UP!!! applies here.  It WOULD have saved the day...and the truck.     It applies EVERYWHERE!   The power lines are 230v circuit lines, in power company parlance. That means any one of the lines would bring 115,000 volts to ground if a conductor that's touching the ground, or near enough to the ground to carry and arc, would be "carrying serious heat" as they might  say in movies. (Or in news stories about almost-happened tragic incidents.)     Please make those moments to stay safe.

BEFORE YOU SET UP,

WALK  AROUND
WALK  AWAY
LOOK  UP!
