Fire Safety Regulations – Content and Structure

Brandschutzverordnung – Inhalt und Aufbau

A fire safety regulation is an important document for fire protection. On one hand, it outlines how fires can be prevented within a company; on the other, it explains to personnel how to behave in the event of a fire. Therefore, it is recommended that every company establish a fire safety code. Such a fire safety code should be kept up to date and regularly reviewed by a qualified professional.

Such a fire safety code is not only a vital foundation for implementing fire protection; it also demonstrates that you are truly serious about fire safety.
