25 Tips For The Holidays
Keep your employees, friends and family safe
with our 25 holiday safety tips!
Tip #1
Check holiday decorations, lights and extension cords for damage before using. Replace any item that appears questionable.
Tip #2
Make sure decorations and artificial trees are flame resistant or non-combustible. Using a “real” tree? Keep it well watered.
Tip #3
Don’t overload electrical outlets. They can overheat and start a fire. Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) when plugging in outdoors.
Tip #4
Don’t block aisles, exits, exit signs or sprinklers with decorations.
Tip #5
Double check the working condition of smoke and CO2 detectors, sprinklers and fire extinguishers. Make replacing batteries an annual habit.
