National Preparedness Month: How You Can Help Prepare & Protect Your Team From Fire Emergencies
National Preparedness Month isn’t just about checking boxes. It’s about providing employees with the equipment, resources, and confidence to feel safe and protected at work.
Ensuring your business is ready for emergencies means taking the steps to equip your team with the right tools. At National Extinguisher Service, we provide comprehensive fire suppression equipment and services, along with hands-on extinguisher training, to give your team the confidence to protect your business.
get equipped
Being equipped with the right tools is the first step toward preparedness. From fire extinguishers to suppression systems, this equipment is often your first line of defense. Did you know there are eight different extinguishing agents used in modern fire extinguishers? Having the right equipment in place gives your team confidence while helping them feel secure, safe, and ready.
get trained
Next Step: Using the equipment. Having the right tools is only half the equation. Your employees need to understand how your fire suppression equipment works and when to use it. Training gives them the confidence to feel safe and ready in the case of an emergency.
know the plan
Every business should have a clear emergency action plan. Employees should be familiar with evacuation routes, where suppression equipment is located, and understand where the designated meeting spot is during an emergency. Reviewing plans regularly ensures no one is caught off guard.
get compliant
Fire suppression equipment needs regular inspections, maintenance, and to be kept in good working condition so it’s ready when you need it most. Staying on top of inspections and maintenance gives your team confidence that everything will perform as it should in an emergency and helps ensure your business remains compliant. While NES performs professional inspections and maintenance, implementing routine checks outside of the required inspection guidelines can help catch small issues early and keep your workplace ready for anything.
