(c) Western Power provides an essential service to the community. Given the vast geographical spread and sheer number of Western Power assets and potential hazard to the public, it is essential for the organisation to proactively educate the community on safety risks associated with the electricity network. Public awareness items are distributed at school education visits as part of the successful "Shock Proof" program and at community public safety forums. In the past year Western Power visited close to 30,000 school-aged children in rural and metropolitan areas promoting safe behaviour around electricity.
