The 'For Safety Together' campaign is launching in the Vitebsk region
To enhance the level of safety culture among the population, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, from April 10 to April 28, has organized the already traditional republican fire prevention campaign to prevent fires and deaths from them in residential buildings during the spring-summer fire hazardous period, titled "For Safety Together". The Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Information, the Ministry of Housing and Communal Services, the Ministry of Health, and the Ministry of Energy, as well as the Belarusian Voluntary Fire Society, will join the events.
During the campaign, the focus will be on inspecting the fire safety status of households belonging to lonely and elderly citizens living alone, disabled individuals, and families with children in socially dangerous situations. Informative and explanatory work will be conducted with them on observing fire safety rules, as well as informing the public about the opportunities provided by state organizations to offer services for ensuring their safety.
Within the framework of the campaign, anyone wishing to do so can contact territorial bodies and units for emergency situations to have the fire safety status of their home inspected.
We remind you that in accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Belarus, the responsibility for observing fire safety requirements in residential buildings owned by citizens under private property rights is imposed on their owners. Therefore, check the operability of autonomous fire detectors, and if they are absent, install them in the living quarters of your household. Pay attention to the proper functioning of heating equipment and electrical wiring. Do not leave children unattended by adults.
Take part in the campaign and stay safe!
