Save the date for the 72nd Annual Governor's Industrial Safety and Health Conference - Sept 26-28, 2023.
The Lifesaving Award is presented to employees in the State of Washington who are covered by industrial insurance, either through the State Fund or a Self-Insured employer and performed a lifesaving action while on duty.
The honorees personally performed urgently required hands-on action in a lifesaving effort. Humanitarian Awards are given when the heroic act didn’t involve hands-on lifesaving effort or when the victim didn’t survive in spite of the lifesaving efforts.
We recognize those recipients at the annual Lifesaving Awards event held during the main Conference.
The nomination period runs through June 30 of each year. See the Application for Lifesaving Award for nomination guidelines and how to submit nominations.
The Pole Top Rescue Competition became part of the Governor’s Industrial Safety and Health Conference in 1973 to teach people about proper rescue techniques. Teams of linemen from the electrical utility industry compete for honors in rescuing a victim from a utility pole in a mock industrial accident. Three judges are chosen by members of the conference’s electrical utilities planning committee.
The preliminary competition will be held Tuesday prior to the main Conference with the top four teams competing at the finals during the Conference on Wednesday. Just before the final competition, teams are given a “problem” or situation that makes the rescue more difficult and requires the teams to think about the safest and most effective way to rescue the victim.
