Bismarck, 58503 United States Get Directions
Established in 1990, TT&S developed naturally from the cooperative nature of North Dakota’s independent telecommunications companies. With a precedent established of collaborative projects, it was a simple leap to consider sharing resources for employee safety and skills development. From this joint effort, TT&S was born.
Each member company appointed one of their employees as a TT&S board member, and the board provided oversight and guidance to the TT&S director. This structure is still in place today.
TT&S identifies and promotes best safety practices for member companies. We have a thirty-year history of providing quality resources and customized solutions for the specialized needs of the rural telecom community. Some of the safety services provided include the following:
-
- Safety training to keep member companies OSHA-compliant. Members can follow the standard schedule of trainings held every other month from Sept – March or can request a custom schedule.
- Certifying employees on forklifts, CPR/First Aid, defensive driving, and ladder inspections
- Accurate training recordkeeping, with 24/7 access to employee safety training records.
- Remaining current with changes to safety training legislation to make sure all members remain compliant.
