Whilst you are on holiday it is easy to forget the importance of safety, but a few simple precautions could save your life, particularly if you are in high rise accommodation:
- Read the Fire Instructions in your room.
- Walk the fire escape route and check that the path is not blocked, or exits locked.
- Check where the fire extinguishers are.
- Check that all windows and doors open properly in your room.
- Check that electrical sockets are not overloaded.
- Switch off electrical appliances when not in use.
- Never assume that a fire alarm is false, always take action when a fire alarm sounds.
Have a safe holiday
