National Lineman Appreciation Day

On April 18th we honor the hard work, innovation, grit and dedication of electrical line workers.
They are a brotherhood and a family. Essential to the work we do, they are always appreciated!

Irby Family of Linemen

Linemen are the heart of our industry, and the reason for Irby’s success.

We appreciate the sacrifices our linemen make and their dedication to getting the job done safely.

Irby’s Linemen are the core of the Irby family. In many cases, they really are family-cousins or brothers. If not bound by name, they are bound by the brotherhood of their work and their mission to keep each other safe. They begin each morning with a commitment to go home safe each night. Nonetheless, the job is a tall order and it  is hazardous. So we must not only appreciate the linemen themselves but also their families for supporting them in their work at Irby.

 

 

Storm RESTORATION

Linemen are never more appreciated than when they restore the normalcy of power following a major storm. 

This past year held another incredibly active storm season. Irby crews worked a number of winter storms and two named Hurricanes, in 12 states, for 12 customers, with over 210,153 total man-hours.

Our linemen’s dedication ensured that impacted communities were able to turn their lights back on.

Today, I want to recognize and thank my son Tobias who works in transmission. While most people never see the work that happens high above the ground or across miles of power lines, it’s because of linemen like him that our communities have the power we so often take for granted. Climbing towers, braving the elements, and working tirelessly to keep the grid strong — that takes courage, skill, and heart. I couldn’t be prouder of the dedication and sacrifice you put into your work every single day. Thank you, son, for the important role you play in keeping the lights on for all of us. You are a true hero in a hard hat. 💙 #FloridaLinemanAppreciationDay #TransmissionLineman #ProudMom
