AI in Utility Safety: Closing the Frontline Reality Gap
August 25, 2026
About this event
Across the Valley, utilities are rethinking how safety programs connect leadership expectations with what's actually happening in the field. This webinar looks at that gap directly, and how member utilities are using technology to close it — digitizing job safety briefings, standardizing inspections, and putting real-time hazard data in front of the people who need it most.
Join us to hear directly from your peers across the Valley, walking through practical, real-world examples of what's working on the ground. Then we'll explore how AI is beginning to layer onto that foundation in useful, grounded ways — how it can help your people in the moment, surface hazards before they become incidents, and take administrative work off your team's plate. Not hype, but real capability that's already live and in use today.

- Jake Landgraf, Director, Strategic Solutions & Growth, Benchmark Gensuite
