This week is National Fire Prevention Week from October 6-12, 2024, it's the perfect time for Florida businesses to revisit and strengthen their fire safety practices. Fires can have devastating impacts on any workplace, from damaging property to putting lives at risk. At BGS Risk Services, we want to remind you that fire prevention is everyone's responsibility and offer some practical tips to safeguard your business. During Fire Prevention Week, we encourage you to: 1. Test and Maintain Fire Alarms and Extinguishers: Ensure that all fire alarms, sprinklers, and extinguishers are in good working order. Routine inspections can be lifesaving in the event of a fire. 2. Review and Update Your Fire Evacuation Plans: Make sure every employee is aware of the evacuation plan and understands their role during an emergency. Practice fire drills regularly to keep everyone prepared. 3. Conduct Fire Safety Training: Educate your team on fire hazards, prevention methods, and how to respond in case of an emergency. Simple steps, like proper handling of flammable materials, can prevent accidents. Fire safety is not just about compliance, it’s about creating a safe and secure environment for your employees and clients. If you need assistance in updating your fire prevention strategies, conducting fire risk assessments, or training your staff, our team at BGS Risk Services is here to help. Let’s work together to protect our workplaces and our communities. Stay safe, stay prepared!

Bateman, Gordon & Sands, Inc. had the privilege of hosting a presentation by Michael Reddington, Certified Forensic Interviewer, President of InQuasive, Inc., and author of The Disciplined Listening Method. His insightful session on “Delivering Bad News” challenged and inspired our account managers, customer service assistants, and account executives.

This week (May 6-10) is National Safety Stand-Down Fall Protection Week. Fatalities caused by falls from elevation continue to be a leading cause of death for construction employees, accounting for 395 of the 1069 construction fatalities recorded in 2022 (BLS data). Those deaths were preventable. The National Safety Stand-Down raises fall hazard awareness across the country in an effort to stop fall fatalities and injuries. A Safety Stand-Down is a voluntary event for employers to talk directly to employees about safety. Any workplace can hold a stand-down by taking a break to focus on "Fall Hazards" and reinforcing the importance of "Fall Prevention". For more information on how your business can take part in this event, OSHA has resources available on their website here: https://lnkd.in/gt5SFzn
