SafetyManager's
"Industrial Fire Prevention" Safety Meeting
Kit looks at fires in an industrial setting and reviews
the steps an employee should take in a fire emergency.
Among
all the safety problems an employee can encounter, fire
can be the most frightening. Every year industrial fires
cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage and result
in hundreds of employee injuries, a number of which are
fatal. Yet many employees do not realize how their own
actions can contribute to the risk of fire.
Topics
covered in this kit include:
- Common
causes of industrial fires.
- Preventing
industrial fires.
- The
concept of "flashpoint".
- "Classes"
of fires.
- Fire
extinguishers.
- Handling
flammable materials.
-
Evacuation and other employee responsibilities.
- First
aid.
- And
more.
