If your company operates in the digital space, being able to communicate effectively with on-site and on-the-road employees is crucial. As a scalable solution, digital signage can be run from a single platform. Utility company digital signage software serves utility companies well in several ways.

Safety reminders. Powerful winter snowstorms and icy conditions, and dangerous summer tornadoes and hurricanes can pose big problems for utility companies and their customers. Dangerous situations abound during these times. Workers handling downed power lines, often in the dark, need to be aware of the safety procedures, and digital signage software makes that possible. From proper lifting to maintaining focus to road safety to wearing proper personal protective equipment (PPE), digital signage can convey the message quickly effectively.

Customer service. Frustrated customers are challenging, especially when you're trying to do your job and have been on call for twenty-four hours or longer. Showing ways to handle customer questions, how to use de-escalation tactics when needed, and dealing with unhappy or frustrated customers can be handled with content shared via digital signage. This is especially important when workers are in public trying to repair electricity to people in the middle of winter or summer storms, when tensions run high.

Health and wellness. It helps motivation and morale to know the company who employs you cares about your wellbeing. Workers who manage their stress levels, eat right, and exercise are more effective, valuable employees. Utility company digital signage reiterates the importance of employee self-care with content, health reminders, and even exercise and recipe videos.
