ARLINGTON, Va., April 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- May is National Electrical Safety Month, and the Electrical Safety Foundation (ESF) is launching its annual effort to help reduce electrically related fatalities, injuries, and property loss. Since 1997, ESF has spearheaded this annual campaign to educate key audiences about the steps that can be taken to remain electrically safe both at home and in the workplace. To kick off the campaign, ESF is releasing this year’s materials, which strive to educate the public on how to purchase, use, and recycle lithium-ion batteries safely.

Key Points:

These batteries can be found in cell phones, tablets, laptops, electric scooters and bikes, toothbrushes, and backup batteries.
“ESF’s 2024 National Electrical Safety Month campaign focuses heavily on the proper way of recycling lithium-ion batteries,” said ESF President Brett Brenner.
Electrical safety awareness and education among consumers and workers will prevent electrical fires, injuries, and deaths.
