Using Fire Extinguishers

Among all the safety problems an employee can encounter, fire can be the most frightening. Every year fires cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage and result in thousands of employee injuries, a number of which are fatal. Yet many of these catastrophes could have been prevented if the fire had been extinguished before it started to spread.

MARCOM's Fire Extinguishers looks at why things burn, reviews the types of fire extinguishers that are found in facilities today, and discusses how to use fire extinguishers to fight small fires.

Topics covered in Fire Extinguishers training include:

• What causes things to burn?
• The concept of "flashpoint".
• "Classes" of fires.
• Fire extinguisher labels.
• Chemical fire extinguishers.
• Water fire extinguishers.
• How to use a fire extinguisher.
