Each year fire fighters are called out to combat fires which may have been avoided had the right fire protection equipment and systems been installed and properly maintained within a premises.

Protecting against fire should not end once a fire protection system is installed. It’s critical that anyone working within a facility knows how to respond to a fire emergency and knows how to use the fire equipment onsite.

If you’re a business owner or manager you have the responsibility of providing a safe working environment for your staff. Your building should have adequate life safety equipment in place that is ready to be used in the case of an emergency.
