How to manage fire safety and equipment

Minimise fire risks at home or at the workplace by considering the below guidelines in fire safety.

• Consider some typical risks involved with your building and its contents. What is flammable? What is your building made of? Which way do the doors open?
• Identify potential hazards and the level of risk they pose.
• Put in place contingency plans for various levels of fire. Have an evacuation plan and conduct regular evacuation drills.
• Have someone in charge of fire safety. Ensure workers and family members know where fire fighting equipment is stored and how to use it.
• Regularly check your fire fighting equipment. Conduct regular fire evacuation drills and test alarms.
• You can find more information on the official workplace OHS website, which applies to households as well as businesses.
