Careless handling of fire while smoking

Careless handling of fire while smoking is a cause entirely dependent on the conscientiousness of citizens themselves. And the abuse of alcoholic beverages, along with smoking, is a double risk and threat of fire. Favorable conditions for the occurrence of a fire can turn into tragic events for the further life of the homeowner, neighbors, and loved ones.

Smoking in a place for sleep poses a particular danger: in bed, on a sofa, or in an armchair.

Remember that you should not smoke in bed or while sitting in an armchair, especially if you have consumed alcohol – it is very easy to fall asleep in such a position. And if you do not extinguish the cigarette in time, your clothes or furniture can catch fire from it.

Do not throw even extinguished cigarettes into bins with paper and other combustible waste, as they can ignite.

Under no circumstances should you smoke in the garage – the proximity of a car and flammable liquids can provoke a fire.

You should also not allow smoking on the stair landing. Under no circumstances is it permissible to throw unextinguished cigarettes into the lower flights or the elevator shaft.

To prevent fires in the workplace or residential sector, it is necessary to comply with fire safety regulations!
