How much does a utility strike cost your company?  For a utility supplier there is the disruption to supplies, the lost revenue, the negative publicity and the customer service issues. For a contractor there are serious cost implications, project delays, and the potential damage to its relationship with its client.  Above all, however, utility strikes can injure operatives and members of the public. Sadly, in some cases, utility strikes can kill.
