What is fire safety?<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
Fire safety is the set of practices intended to reduce the destruction caused by fire. Fire safety measures include those that are intended to prevent ignition of an uncontrolled fire and those that are used to limit the development and effects of a fire after it starts.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Statistics reveal that inhalation of smoke, gases, and vapors is responsible for the majority of\u00a0fire\u00a0deaths. Many new materials are much more toxic than traditional materials. … The main\u00a0danger\u00a0from smoke is reduced visibility, while the adverse effect on body functions is the concern with gases and vapors.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Top Tips for Fire Safety<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
Test smoke alarms every month. …<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL FOR HELP.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Employer responsibilities regarding fire safety in health and care industry<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
Fire is the probably the biggest risk threat to life that most people face at work, with around 50 people being killed and over 2000 seriously injured every year. In order to minimise the risk of fire in the workplace, it is vital that everyone is aware of the common causes of fire and the appropriate actions to take in the event of a fire, including how to escape safely from the scene.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Employers are legally required by Fire Safety Regulations (The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005) to provide information, instruction and training to employees about fire precautions in the workplace.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
This course is targeted at businesses needing to train their staff in fire safety procedures. However, it is also applicable to anyone who wishes to learn how to prevent fire in the workplace and deal with it effectively should it occur.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
