Fire prevention and protection

With the emphasis on fire prevention during the month of October, now is a good time to review your procedures for preventing fires in the workplace. The experts remind you of the importance of having a plan, maintaining good housekeeping methods, staying current with preventive maintenance, and installing fire detection systems.

You also need to know how to respond in the event of a fire, as well as steps to recover after a fire.

For a detailed checklist to guide your planning, including preparedness before a fire, response during a fire and recovery after a fire, call the program administrator for GlassInsure, NGA’s sponsored insurance program, at 800/640-7601, and ask for “Fire Prevention and Protection.”
