Programs to Support Our Employees Impacted by the Recent Fires in Los Angeles
In light of the recent wildfires and windstorms impacting Los Angeles County, we want to extend our deepest sympathies to all LADWP employees and their families who have been affected.
We continue to hold your safety and well-being as our top priority. To support you during this challenging time, we have compiled a list of resources and assistance programs available to you. We will keep adding to this as more information becomes available.
We are stronger together as we help each other recover and rebuild.
From CEO and Chief Engineer
We have accomplished a lot together since the windstorm began on Tuesday, January 7th. We remained vigilant and committed to our customers, restoring power and helping with all firefighting efforts. This despite many of us being directly impacted by the fires, with families being evacuated, experiencing power outages, minds filled with worry and anxiety, and bodies tired and fatigued.
Sadly, we have confirmed that many of our colleagues suffered damage or lost their homes. We want them to know that we are thinking of them and we are here for them. Please avail of the resources you need and talk to your manager or supervisor about your circumstances. We mean it when we say we are here to support as best as we can.
