Fire, Explosion Hazard & Emergency Response Management

Industrial fires are one of the foremost threats to the people and property of any organization. Injuries, deaths, and loss of business result from fires each year. It is estimated that 45% of businesses never re-open after a minor fire. Such losses are avoidable by applying effective fire prevention controls and being prepared for emergencies. Good management practices require the development and implementation of policies and procedures to protect employees and property by preventing and/or controlling fires and preparing for emergencies.

Salvo Global’s comprehensive masterclass on “Fire/Explosion Hazard & Emergency Response Management” will enable Health & Safety professionals to put in place and evaluate their fire prevention controls and emergency preparedness in the event of a fire. Refineries, petrochemical, manufacturing facilities, mining, and drilling operations will find the information and tools presented useful in developing fire prevention and emergency preparedness programs.
