Here are some tips: • When choosing a costume, stay away from long trailing fabric. If your child is wearing a mask, make sure the eye holes are large enough so he or she can see out. • Provide children with flashlights to carry for lighting or glow sticks as part of their costume. • Dried flowers, cornstalks, and crepe paper catch fire easily. Keep all decorations away from open flames and other heat sources like light bulbs and heaters. • Use a battery-operated candle or glow-stick in jack-o-lanterns. If you use a real candle, use extreme caution. Make sure children are watched at all times when candles are lit. When lighting candles inside jack-o-lanterns, use long, fireplace-style matches or a utility lighter. Be sure to place lit pumpkins well away from anything that can burn and far enough out of the way of trick-or-treaters, doorsteps, walkways, and yards. • Remember to keep exits clear of decorations so nothing blocks escape routes. • Make sure all smoke alarms in the home are working. • Tell children to stay away from open flames including jack-o-lanterns with candles in them. Be sure they know how to stop, drop, and roll if their clothing catches fire.

When a fire protection system (non-potable water system) is connected to the public water supply, the systems are said to be cross connected. In some localities, cross connections may be prohibited or closely regulated by health authorities. Improperly protected water systems have the potential to lead to illness and even in some cases death. Federal regulations require states to provide quality water when it is intended for public consumption. Because of this, states and municipal governments have taken various steps to protect the potable water supply, such as requiring backflow prevention when the fire protection system will be supplied by a potable water source. Are you wondering whether you should repair or replace your backflow assembly? Many a times, when an assembly fails, it’s hard to determine whether it needs to be replaced or whether it can simply be repaired. IFP provides the much sought after answers pertaining to the assembly repairing vs. replacing dilemma.

Extinguishers are a useful tool in the hands of a trained person during an emergency situation. Now that you know the different types of extinguishers let's talk about the importance of placement. Extinguishers need to be located along normal paths of travel. This is because extinguishers should be available to occupants when evacuating. You do not want occupants to move away from an exit and risk being trapped by the fire when trying to retrieve an extinguisher. Extinguishers also need to be installed in places where they’re visible, but if an obstruction is unavoidable then there needs to be a sign provided to indicate the extinguisher’s location. Extinguishers need to be installed at least 4 inches off the ground up to a maximum of 5ft. The exception to this is for extinguishers heavier than 40 lbs, they can only be up to 3 ft 6 inches off the ground and wheeled fire extinguishers don’t need to be off the ground since the wheels already keep the cylinder from touching the floor. Extinguishers not on wheels are often installed on hangers or brackets, which need to be intended for the extinguisher, but they can also be installed in cabinets. If you are needing help figuring out what type of extinguishers you need or where to place them let us help you with your extinguisher needs and help you keep those around you safe in case of an emergency.

Creating a sense of belonging is essential for everyone’s well-being and success in the workplace. When individuals feel they belong, they are more engaged, motivated, and productive. Belonging is not just nice to have; it’s a fundamental need that directly impacts work culture and performance. By fostering this psychologically safe work environment, we can create a space where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to bring their whole selves to work. #ConstructionInclusionWeek
