Heat, Fuel, Oxygen
In order for a fire to start and spread, three elements are essential: heat, oxygen, and fuel. To effectively prevent fires, it is crucial to address one or more of these elements. Conducting a comprehensive risk assessment should include detailed considerations of heat, oxygen, and fuel to minimize the risk of fire initiation and spread.
Fire-prevention programs have specific goals, including fire prevention, fire detection, fire notification, fire suppression, and fire control. Fires can disrupt business activities, lead to loss or damage of important documents, result in employee work hour losses, and potentially give rise to liability claims if the fire spreads to neighboring properties.
Fires can have severe consequences, causing injuries, loss of life, and damage to buildings. By proactively establishing a fire prevention plan, you can help protect your employees and visitors, prevent costly damages, and mitigate the risk of fines or legal action against your business.
