Fire safety is everyone's job at a worksite. Employers
should train workers about fire hazards in the workplace
and about what to do in a fire emergency. If you want
your workers to evacuate, you should train them on how
to escape. If you expect your workers to use
firefighting equipment, you should give them appropriate
equipment and train them to use the equipment safely.

controlling fire emergencies.
