Workplace fire safety
Organise fire safety around your workplace.
Operational and organisational fire safety connected with occupational safety and medicine, according to workplace requirements and hazards.
Connection
Fire safety in its organisational context
We do not consider fire safety in isolation. Our occupational safety specialists, occupational physicians and fire safety experts work in coordination. This creates practical solutions that integrate into your organisation’s existing processes.
Organisation
What matters in day-to-day work
Start with activities, hazards and your organisation’s existing arrangements. Responsibilities, conduct and links with staff instruction are considered according to workplace requirements and hazards. Not every measure is legally required in every workplace.
Understanding
Make safe conduct understandable
Rules of conduct and staff instruction need a connection with actual working processes. Responsibilities and workplace requirements are considered together so that fire safety is not treated as a separate topic detached from daily work.
