Lakeville Fire Department Provides Tips for a Fire-Safe Workplace
The Lakeville Fire Department handled 15 calls the week of Aug. 13-19.
Here are general tips for a fire-safe workplace:
• Practice good workplace housekeeping. Clutter contributes to fires by providing fuel and by preventing access to exits and emergency equipment.
• Help maintain building security to prevent arson fires. Lock up as instructed, report suspicious persons and don’t leave combustible rubbish where it can be set afire outside the building.

• Finally, take time to locate the closest fire extinguisher to your work area.
