The importance of Fire safety awareness

You may be shocked to find out that Fire is often still the biggest safety risk that a business can face.

In 2013-14, there were 22,200 fires recorded in buildings that were not dwellings (e.g. retail units, food establishments, and industrial manufacturing plants). This is over 22,000 instances in which UK staff could be hurt from a lack of vigilance, or a lack of correct fire safety awareness training. ISA Business Support have been providing fire safety awareness to businesses predominantly within Staffordshire for over 10 years now and they firmly believe that its ‘safety first’.
