Power Plant employees go a decade without injury
“A decade without a single recordable injury is a major achievement and one that clearly illustrates our employees’ personal accountability when it comes to safety,” said Scott Diermann, director of gas plant operations. “We are extremely proud of this milestone and look forward to celebrating many more.”

Luminant’s Lake Hubbard employees participate in a variety of safety programs including peer observations and daily pre-job safety discussions to ensure each employee begins the workday with safe operations as a primary focus.
