Step 1
Conduct an office fire drill once every six months. It's a good idea to have one person appointed to "fire safety duty" to plan drills and make sure fire hazards are avoided.
-
Step 2
Make sure fire extinguishers are mounted every 75 feet, in the vicinity of employees.
-
Step 3
Keep fire sprinklers clear of clutter. Avoid hanging objects from them, and make sure there's an 18-inch clearance below each sprinkler.
-
Step 4
Leave fire doors closed. In the event of a fire, a closed fire door can save more of the building from becoming damaged by not allowing the fire to spread.
-
Step 5
Check all electrical wires and cords for fraying. Use a power strip if you need more than two outlets.
-
Step 6
Dispose of all broken electrical appliances.
-
Step 7
Turn off all decorative lights when you leave work.
