Firefighters are everyday heroes who put their lives on the line to protect our communities. They bravely respond to emergencies, whether it's extinguishing fires, rescuing people, or providing medical aid. Their dedication and quick thinking save lives and property, offering comfort and hope in the face of danger. We owe them immense gratitude for their selfless service and unwavering courage. #SafetyFirst #StaySafe #SafetyAware #SecureLife #ProtectionPledge #SafetyCulture #SafeHands #PreventionPriority #SafetyIsKey #GuardedLife #SafeJourney #SafetyNet #SecureSteps #SafetyCheck #ProtectAndProsper #safetyjobs #experttrainersacademy

Would you rather foster connections through family game nights… or risk losing those moments because your smoke alarms failed to alert you in the event of a fire? Prioritize fire safety by installing smoke alarms on every storey of your home and outside all sleeping areas. Only working smoke alarms can protect what truly matters! #FPW2024 #FirePrevention #ProtectWhatMatters #FirePreventionWeek

🚒 Why invest in fire & rescue services? It's about more than just fires! In 2023, we had over 4000 medical emergencies - only 13% of which were overdoses. Our residents expect help fast and it's our responsibility to show up for them. By adding 16 new firefighters and smaller response vehicles with two-person teams we are helping to ensure we’re there when it counts while keeping larger resources ready for major incidents. #FireService #CommunitySafety #FirstResponders #EmergencyResponse Dan Ruimy

Fire Hazard! Did you know that double adapters are a huge fire risk? They don't have a cut out switch, so if they ever become overloaded they can catch fire. We always remove double adapters from service, especially in high risk sites such as aged care, schools and child care. Surge protected power boards are a much SAFER alternative that we strongly recommend. #pulsetestandtag #firehazard #electricalsafety #electrical #safetytips #schoolsafety #workplacesafety #sydneynsw
