Bethlehem, PA \u2013 Trans-Bridge Lines, the Lehigh Valley\u2019s premier motorcoach company, announces that it has concluded its annual Safety Week 2025, a dedicated initiative aimed at enhancing safety awareness and practices among its employees.

Safety Week commenced with presentations tailored for office and shop employees, covering critical topics such as traffic merging, active shooter scenarios (presented by the Pennsylvania State Police), health and wellness discussions, and protocols to prevent slips, trips, and falls. Guest speakers provided valuable insights to help employees avoid injuries and implement best safety practices across all areas of operations.<\/p>\n
A special session was conducted for the company\u2019s motorcoach drivers at the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City. Presented information focused on vehicle inspections, accident procedures, and bus fire protocols. The day concluded with a recognition cere- mony honoring drivers for their years of safe driving. Certificates and service pins were presented, highlighting the vital role drivers play in upholding the company\u2019s standards of safety, reliability, and excellence. Awards for up to 26 years of safe driving were given.<\/p>\n
Later in the week, office, shop, and wash bay employees participated in discussions on workplace awareness, including the use of earbuds and cybersecurity measures to prevent scams, fraud, and information theft. The City of Bethlehem Paramedics gave compre- hensive training on how to perform CPR and use a defibrillator. Each employee took a turn at performing chest compressions on the training model and presenter, Jeff Fritz, showed the group how to apply and use an AED device to shock the heart back into rhythm.<\/p>\n
A highlight of the week was the annual \u201cState of the Company\u201d address delivered by President Tom JeBran. He provided updates on<\/p>\n
company operations, acknowledged employee contributions, and emphasized the importance of transparency and teamwork.<\/p>\n
\u201cI take the opportunity to give our \u2018State of the Company\u2019 report because I feel our employees deserve to know our challenges and accomplishments. We discuss what we have done in the past year, what is currently in progress, and our goals for the future, JeBran stated, \u201cEach year Safety Week strives to give a well-rounded blend of information to give employees the knowledge and tools to stay safe and aware not just at work, but also at home. We always want the information shared to apply to real life scenarios to keep our employees\u2019 families safe too. Safety can mean knowing how we\u2019re doing as a company, cybersecurity, driving safely, physical wellness and beyond. When you really think about it, safety encompasses many subject areas, which is why we do this as an event every year.\u201d<\/p>\n
