Make Safety a Habit, Every Day.

A strong safety culture isn’t built in a day — it’s built through consistent, everyday habits in every interaction.

The Every Day Safe program from the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) helps propane companies strengthen safety culture through a simple, adaptable framework and practical tools that support safer policies, procedures, and daily habits. When safety becomes a habit, it helps protect employees, customers, and communities — and strengthens the propane industry as a whole.
