Summary
Details

Grounded for Life isn't just another safety manual-it's a survival guide for the trades. Written straight from the dirt, steel, and scars of real job sites, this book cuts through the corporate fluff and delivers hard-hitting lessons every worker and leader needs.

From electrical hazards and lockout/tagout, to job briefings, incident investigations, and leadership under pressure, Bobby Duncan lays out what it really takes to survive and thrive in construction and electrical work. Every chapter is anchored in discipline, culture, and respect for the hazard-because survival in this trade isn't about luck, it's about deliberate choices.

Built for apprentices, foremen, trainers, and executives alike, Grounded for Life blends field-tested experience with practical tools that crews can use immediately. Whether you're stepping onto your first jobsite or leading a team through high-risk work, this book equips you with the mindset and methods to go home safe, build a lasting legacy, and protect the people who depend on you.

Survival isn't dramatic-it's deliberate. This book shows you how to make it your standard.
