Make Fire Extinguishers Accessible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, having suitable fire extinguishers is only part of an effective fire safety setup. Equipment must also be positioned where it can be easily identified and accessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider using fire extinguisher stands and wall brackets to keep units securely positioned. Clearly displayed fire safety signs can also help employees and visitors locate equipment quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regular inspections are important to ensure extinguishers remain in good working condition. The Zenova FX6L and FX9L technical information recommends inspection at least every 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Review Your Workplace Fire Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Workplace fire protection should be reviewed regularly to ensure equipment remains suitable for your environment. In particular, this should be re-considered when the materials or machinery handled or storage arrangements change. Simply re-assess your ignition sources in your risk assessment to ensure you have the right fire protection to meet the safety requirements to keep everyone safe if the worst were to happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure employees understand your emergency procedures, know how to raise the alarm and are familiar with evacuation routes and meeting points. Moreover, fire extinguishers should only be used by people who are appropriately trained and when it is safe to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find Your Fire Safety Essentials with Workplace Products<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing the right <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workplace-products.co.uk\/safety-security\/ppe\/fire-protection.html\">fire protection<\/a> equipment is an important step towards creating a safer working environment.
