Fire can break out at any time, anywhere — at home, at work, or even outdoors. The consequences can be devastating, leading to injury, loss of life, and damage to property. That’s why fire safety is not just a legal requirement in many places — it’s a moral responsibility. This blog provides key insights and practical steps you can take to prevent fires and respond effectively if one occurs.

Fire safety refers to a set of practices and procedures designed to reduce the risk of fire and ensure a safe response in case of a fire emergency. This includes prevention strategies, fire detection and suppression systems, escape plans, and education.

Fire safety is only effective when people are aware and prepared. Whether you're a parent, business owner, teacher, or student:

• Participate in fire drills regularly.

• Learn how to use a fire extinguisher (remember the PASS method – Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep).

• Create and practice evacuation plans.
