What Would Happen If Your Business Caught Fire?
What does your fire & life safety plan look like? Everyone thinks a fire will never happen to them…until it does. An estimated 1,291,500 building fires were reported in the United States last year. What would happen if your business caught fire?
As a small business owner, you are responsible for your employees and customers in the event of a fire. Make sure you’re doing everything possible to ensure their life safety. In the event of a fire, your company’s equipment holding sensitive information is also at risk. Last year, $14.8 billion worth of losses were reported. An integrated fire safety plan is aimed at preventing loss of life and damage. However, just to be safe you should back up your data and have a business continuity plan in place.
The Small Business Safety and Health Handbook says fire alarm systems must be certified, in proper working condition, and tested annually. The National Fire Protection Association recommends you install smoke alarms on every level of the building, test smoke alarms monthly, and replace smoke alarms that are more than 10 years old.
Don’t let a natural disaster destroy your business. Have a fire & life safety plan that’s engineered and intelligent. The professional team at WTS provides commercial fire and life safety systems to businesses, schools, hotels, and multi-dwelling facilities throughout South Carolina.
