The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has dedicated the latest edition of the NFPA 70E® Handbook to Kenneth G. Mastrullo of the New England office of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

Formerly an NFPA senior electrical specialist, Mastrullo served as the NFPA staff liaison for the Committee on Electrical Safety in the Workplace.

"Ken knows electrical safety first-hand. He has had many years of experience as an electrician and a plant engineer, and he understands the real cost of electrical accidents to the worker, the coworkers, and the employer," said Mark Earley, chief electrical engineer at NFPA.

During his tenure at NFPA, Mastrullo became a spokesperson for electrical safety and spread the word about electrical safety at the IEEE Electrical Safety Workshop, the Voluntary Protection Program Association, and NFPA seminars on NFPA 70E®. Mastrullo's dedication is noted by the increase in the prominence of NFPA 70E®and other electrical safety programs around the world.

"While Ken can quote the statistics on electrical accidents, he knows that behind those cold hard numbers are real people. He has dedicated his career to protecting those people," said Earley.
