Lineworkers and PSEG Long Island field personnel work in shifts around the clock and must be ready to answer an emergency call in challenging conditions to help provide safe, reliable electric service to 1.2 million customers on Long Island and in the Rockaways.

"Whether it's replacing equipment on a blue sky day or working 16-hour shifts when storms, blizzards or other natural disasters strike, we are grateful for their 24/7 dedication and hard work."

PSEG Long Island has approximately 700 in-house and contracted lineworkers, all of whom play a vital role in ensuring that customers have the best-in-class service that they expect and deserve.
