Fire Prevention



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.

This months safety topic addresses fire prevention and control.  The links listed below will assist you preventing and controlling fire emergencies.
