POLICY STATEMENT
It is the aim of RF Global Solutions in the event of a fire or a suspected fire emergency on RF Global Solutions property, to preserve life. To achieve this RF Global Solutions has implemented fire systems that comply with the current fire legislation. These systems provide a means of detection and warning, means of escape, means of fighting fire and staff training in fire safety. RF Global Solutions expects staff to co-operate with RF Global Solutions in pursuance of this aim. RF Global Solutions does not require or expect that staff fight such fires due to the potential risks from this activity, which are considered to exceed the likely damage from any fire. It is therefore considered safer for occupants of the building to ensure that the fire alarm is sounding, shut doors and windows and evacuate the building.
