6 Urgent Steps To Take During Fire Outbreak

Understanding the immediate steps to take during a fire outbreak is crucial for safety.

Here are six urgent steps to take in handling fire outbreaks.

Raise an alarm

Immediately upon noticing a fire, shout “Fire!” to warn anyone nearby, ensuring everyone is aware of the danger.

Evacuate immediately

Use the safest exit: Head for the nearest safe exit and avoid elevators, as they can become traps during a fire.

Close doors as you leave

When escaping a fire, closing doors behind you is a crucial step that can slow the fire’s spread if you are the last person leaving the room.

Help vulnerable  people

These vulnerable groups may face challenges in evacuating quickly on their own, making calm, compassionate assistance crucial.

Use fire extinguishers

It is essential for every household, workplace, and shop to have at least one fire extinguisher.

 If you’re dealing with a small, manageable fire, using a fire extinguisher is an important step to take to contain a fire outbreak and stop it from spreading.

Know the safety protocols

Knowing the nearest exits and the steps to take in an emergency can make all the difference when seconds count.
