F
or 125 years, Jelco has been synonymous
with quality harnesses, lanyards, lineman
belts, pole straps and other fall protec-
tion equipment. But for CEO and President Phil-
ip B. Clemmons, Jelco isn’t just a manufacturer.
Jelco is in the business of safety.
“Our job is to make sure anyone who works at
heights comes home at the end of the day,” says
Clemmons from his Alabama office. “Just like
I want my own son to be safe while out there
climbing, we consider the safety of every indi-
vidual in our products. It’s why every one of our
employees signs a quality policy on core princi-
ples—because no matter how small their role, it
comes together for the big picture,” Clemmons
says passionately.
