There are many unexpected causations of why a fire might start at the workplace. Someone could have left their candle going, or someone might have forgotten their lunch in the microwave. Whatever the reason, it’s all about how you react to the fire alarm to determine if you can get it extinguished before it grows.
The fire alarms are going off due to someone forgetting their lunch in the microwave. You find the nearest fire extinguisher, and you approach the fire.
- Pull the pin. This will break the tamper seal as well.
- Aim low; you will want to point the extinguisher nozzle at the base of the fire.
- Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent.
- Sweep from side to side at the base of the fire until it appears to be out.
By following these steps, you can guarantee that you keep your business safe. When you implement training of the extinguisher equipment, you can ensure that your employees know what needs to get done, so a problem ever arises.
