Fire Safety Procedures for Moose Lodges
Each October, organizations like the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and others observe Fire Prevention Week and Month by spreading fire safety awareness and helping protect homes, businesses and people. The annual event began in 1911 to commemorate the Great Chicago Fire, a fire that killed approximately 300 people and destroyed over 17,000 structures.
Whether your Lodge partakes in Fire Prevention Week or Month, or works on fire safety procedures year-round, it is important to be aware of fire hazards and have a plan in place. Because as OSHA states, “fire safety becomes everyone’s job”.
