Continental Electrical Construction Co.

This week, we provided our electricians with essential NFPA 70E 2024 update training to ensure their safety and compliance with electrical standards. This session covered electrical hazard awareness, personal protective equipment (PPE), and best practices for staying safe on the job. Keeping our team informed and safe is a top priority! Training is vital to our investment in the health, safety, and well-being of our workforce. #NFPA70E #ElectricalSafety 

Congratulations to Pat Hennessy on his retirement! As an electrician and member of IBEW Local 701, Pat has spent over 30 years in the industry and has provided over 25 years of service to Continental. In this time, he has supervised many high-profile projects and mentored dozens of employees. Over the last decade, Pat has dedicated his time and effort to a vital mission critical construction and constant presence account. The hard work, dedication, organization, and leadership that Pat has put forward for this customer is a primary reason we have maintained our status there for so long. His customer relations skills are second to none and have built a partnership that will continue for years to come. In retirement, Pat is looking forward to spending more time with Lisa, his wife, and his grown children. Thanks for all your hard work, Pat! We wish good health to you and your family. #CECCoProud

Our team is #CECCoProud to support a world-renowned university, an institution that demands nothing less than excellence. Our skilled electricians have been engaged in a range of electrical upgrades, maintenance, renovations, and additions across the campus. A recent visit revealed the unique challenges of working for institutions with such rich history. The intricate layers of conduit work and the complexity of the infrastructure require a deep understanding and respect for the craftsmanship that came before us. We embrace these challenges, applying our expertise to seamlessly integrate new solutions while preserving the integrity of the existing systems. At Continental, we are committed to delivering high-quality results, ensuring that this vital facility remains reliable for years to come. #electricalcontractor

Special thanks to our Service Electrician, Lou Medina, for his efforts in coordinating the work with our partners and ensuring a success.  

#CECCoProud to announce the retirement of John Mucha. Let’s all send our congratulations! On Friday, John worked his last day after 40 years in the industry! We thank him for his hard work and dedication at Continental since September 6th, 1990, 34 years of service with us! In his time with CECCo, John has trained hundreds of electricians that have come through our doors. Management and fellow electricians are extremely grateful for his knowledgeable mentorship and guidance. Dedication to the customer is something that is hard to teach, and John has gone above and beyond in this capacity. Connie(John’s Wife), Kristina (John’s Daughter), and Steven (John’s son) will get to spend a lot more time with John in his next chapter. Thanks John, and good luck to you and your family! 

Wishing everyone a safe and restful Labor Day! Your hard work is appreciated every single day!

#CECCoProud to be a part of the annual IBEW Local 134 Helping Hand Fund Fundraiser last Saturday! Our very own Local 134 electricians and office staff had a great time supporting this great cause. The Helping Hand Fund of Local 134 was created with one goal - to help their brother and sister members who are in distress. They provide assistance to members in need due to lack of employment, personal tragedies, and other issues that may occur in a member’s life.

Dogs, Bikes and Rides 2024 was a blast! We had the pleasure of hosting an afternoon of checking out cool cars and bikes and catching up with colleagues and retirees. Great weather and great people sharing laughs and good food. Thanks to staff that organized and the attendees too! See you next year! #CECCoProud

We were #CECCoProud to sponsor and attend the 27th Annual PowerForward DuPage Golf Outing this year! The event was a fantastic opportunity to connect with peers, enjoy a day of golf, and support a great cause. Thank you to everyone who made it possible! A portion of the proceeds from the 50/50 raffle tickets sold during the outing are donated to the IBEW Local 701 Needy Members Fund which assists the members of IBEW Local 701 and their families in progressing through difficult times. Thanks to the generosity of our outing participants that helped contributed to this fund.
