In the modern world, in connection with the emergence of a number of dangers of man-made, natural and social origin, there is a constantly relevant issue of human security in the environment and the preservation of material values ​​created by it. The solution to this problem is achieved by a compromise between the objects of nature, production, social and other human activities and is implemented as a set of measures aimed at mobilizing government tructures and the public to prepare appropriate human resources to change the way of thinking and behaving, forming in each person a sense of personal responsibility for compliance with safety requirements for a variety of daily activities.

 

Fire safety rules

 

Basic rules of conduct in case of fire detection:

  1. No need to panic. Instead, you need to take matters into your own hands, be vigilant and attentive to act consistently.
  2. At the first signs of fire immediately call the fire brigade at 101. Name the exact address of the object, indicate the number of floors of the building, the place of the fire, the presence and number of people, as well as your name.
  3. If the fire is not large-scale, try to take (if possible) measures to evacuate people, and also try to extinguish the flames with the help of primary fire extinguishers, namely a fire extinguisher or with the help of improvised means. Cover with a thick blanket, cover with sand or pour the fire with water. But never extinguish burning wiring and appliances connected to the mains with water. This is extremely dangerous.
  4. If the fire has spread to the whole room, then it must be left quickly. It is best to do this through the door, but if the door is locked, then try to call for help.
  5. If you understand that you can not cope with the fire on your own, leave the room immediately. Try to get all the people out of the building or at least warn them about the fire. Never risk yourself for valuables and other property.
  6. Do not run at random. Before opening a closed door in a burning building, touch it with the back of your hand. If you feel warmth with your hand, do not open the door – fire is behind it.

 

  1. In case of fire, use the simplest means of protection of the respiratory system from carbon monoxide: you need to moisten clothes or cotton gauze bandages with water and cover your nose and mouth with them.

 

If the flame cuts off the way out:

  1. Go to the room furthest from the fire, close all the doors tightly behind you. Open the window (do not do this if something is already burning in the room) or go to the balcony and try to attract people’s attention by shouting for help.
  2. If possible, cover the gaps between the floor and the door with a wet cloth, turn off the electricity and turn off the gas.
  3. If the room is filled with smoke, breathe through a damp cloth. Make sure the door is tightly closed and protrude into the open window. If you do not have access to it or a stream of smoke pours through the window, stay as close to the floor as possible, because harmful combustion products accumulate at the level of our height and above.
  4. Do not use the elevator during a fire. In such situations, electricity is usually cut off first of all. Go down the stairs only.
