The current crisis caused by the novel coronavirus and resulting COVID-19 pandemic has reminded us all how much we rely on essential service workers. The brave healthcare workers; law enforcement and first responders; food and agriculture workers; transportation and distribution system workers; energy, petroleum, and natural gas workers; communications and IT workers; community and government workers; and critical manufacturing workers all deserve our recognition and sincere gratitude.

Perhaps one of the most invisible but undeniably essential group of workers includes the individuals making sure our faucets are flowing with clean water and our waste is getting properly treated when we brush or flush. 

Babcock Laboratories, Inc. is proud to support public utilities, public works, and sanitation workers by providing the laboratory results required to do these essential jobs. Babcock employee-owners provide essential water testing for more than two million people living and working in the Inland Empire and greater Southern California region. Our mission is to safeguard public health and the environment through the laboratory services we perform, and that has continued to ring true during these uncertain times.
