RISK IS GENERICALLY DEFINED AS THE UNCERTAINTY OF LOSS. A person conducting a business or undertaking must prevent the possibility of fire or explosion from an ignition of flammable substances associated with a hazardous area or a hazardous atmosphere. Fire and explosion can result in catastrophic consequences, causing serious injuries or death of workers and others, as well as significant damage to property.
The goal of fire prevention is to educate the public to take precautions to prevent potentially harmful fires, and be educated about surviving them.
The mission of the NFPA established in 1896, is to reduce the worldwide burden of fire and other hazards on the quality of life by providing and advocating consensus codes and standards, research, training, and education.
