Fire protection is a management task
Employers, regardless of whether they are entrepreneurs or managing directors, are responsible for fire protection in the factory and office. Regardless of whether the company works in its own building or is rented out. This is what the legal requirements want. In the worst case, those responsible in the company are personally liable. A number shows how important preventive fire protection is in a company. 43 percent of companies become insolvent after a fire: customers migrate during a business interruption, market shares are lost, employees have to be laid off.
In fire protection, managers are also faced with very practical requirements. For example, you can use the following questions to check how fire protection is in your company:
- Is the fire protection concept observed during the renovation?
- Does the IT also allocate the cable routes according to the specifications so that a fire can be prevented?
- Are the fire doors regularly and professionally maintained?
- Are the fire seals correctly implemented to prevent the passage of flames and smoke into other areas?
All of this and much more serves to protect people, production and the environment. With CWS Fire Safety, those responsible have a professional fire protection partner at their side.
