WORKPLACE FIRE SAFETY: PREVENTION SAVES LIVES! 🚒

Every year in the United States, approximately 16,500 fires occur in offices and stores, causing more than $932 million in direct property damage.

Taking a few simple precautions can help protect employees, customers, and businesses.

✅ Help Prevent Workplace Fires:
Check electrical outlets, cords, and cables for damage or overloading.
Keep flammable materials away from electrical equipment.
Never leave portable heating devices unattended.

🚨 Be Prepared for an Emergency:
Make sure smoke alarms and fire sprinklers are properly installed and working. Keep fire escape plans clearly posted. Know your emergency exits and evacuation routes.
Familiarize yourself with fire protection equipment.

🔥 If a Fire Occurs:
Call 911 and alert others.
Use the stairs, never the elevator.
If you cannot evacuate, remain calm, seal gaps around doors, and signal for help from a window.

Fire safety is everyone's responsibility! A little preparation today can make a big difference in an emergency.
