Fire can strike without warning, turning an ordinary day into an emergency. Knowing how to prevent, respond to, and escape a fire can save lives. Welcome to our fire safety awareness training, where we'll explore simple but vital steps to protect yourself, your colleagues, and your workplace.

Fire hazards are all around us. Things like overloaded outlets, frayed wires, or leaving cooking unattended, are common risks that can lead to a fire. Good news is, by spotting these hazards and fixing them, you can help prevent a fire before it even starts.

Prevention is the best defense against fire. Make sure electrical equipment is in good shape, and always store flammable items safely. Simple checks and regular maintenance can go a long way in stopping a fire before it starts.

Smoke alarms are lifesavers. They give you those precious minutes to act when there’s smoke or fire. It's important to have them installed properly, test them regularly, and never ignore them. They're your first line of defense.

If a fire does break out, knowing how to evacuate quickly and safely is key. Familiarize yourself with your building's exit routes and assembly points. And remember, always take the stairs, not the elevators, and stay low to avoid breathing in smoke.

If the fire is small and manageable, a fire extinguisher could be your best tool. Just remember the PASS method: Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep from side to side. But if it's too big to handle, don't risk it—get out and let the professionals take over.

In any fire situation, calling emergency services is a must. After searching for help, stay calm and go somewhere safe. Staying calm can make a huge difference. Everyone has a part to play in fire safety. Whether it's making sure exits are clear, following safety rules, or reporting something that looks off, your actions help keep the workplace safe for everyone.

And that's it for this video. By staying aware and prepared, you can help prevent fires and protect the people around you. It’s all about prevention, preparation, and knowing how to act when it matters most.
