Abstract: Ensuring the continuity of the electricity supply service is, nowadays, one of the most principal factors for its distributors and consumers, which is why efforts are increasingly being sought to promote, apply, and develop techniques and materials to optimize live line work, to minimize the impact of interventions in the electrical, transport and distribution grid networks. However, nothing should override the safety of workers, as work plays a central role in the lives of these operators, and regardless of the importance of any organization's objectives, they have a legal and moral obligation to provide safe and healthy working environments to achieve its objectives. The present study case is fundamentally based on an empirical analysis of a reflective nature, regarding a set of data collected in a company in the electricity sector, referring to a period of 10 years, in order to understand the impact that certain measures adopted by the organization had on the influence of accident rates. This analysis will provide to understand the impact that all the investment channeled by the organization in safety management for 10 years had on accident rates, namely in those that occurred at electrical transformation stations.
