Coffee and Safety: Join Us at a Safety Breakfast

- Kassi Zaba, Manager - Stakeholder Relations, Utility Safety Partners 

We are only a month into 2026, but we are well on our way in planning this year’s Safety Breakfasts. Each year, USP hosts free breakfast events around the province, where Albertans can enjoy a hot meal while they learn about working safely around underground and overhead facilities. At each breakfast, local facility owners and safety representatives share important information and updates with community members living or working in the region. Everyone is welcome to attend, learn, ask questions, and connect with others. We hope you can join us at a breakfast near you!

Lethbridge – February 26, 2026

USP’s Education & Awareness Committee is hosting the first breakfast of the year in conjunction with AgExpo.
