Firefighting Discussion: On Bank Fire Safety Problems and Countermeasures

With the rapid development of China’s economic construction and urbanization, bank outlets have been increasing, business scope has expanded rapidly, and high-rise buildings and multi-functional buildings have been developing rapidly. Electronic equipment, electrical equipment, security equipment, and fire fighting equipment have been used extensively in banks. It has played a huge role in promoting China's economic development. However, due to fire safety management work can not keep up with the situation, resulting in fire accidents are also more frequent. The reasons for this are mostly due to the aging of electrical wires, improper use of electrical equipment, accidental fire, and burning of computers, air conditioners, account cards, and houses. The losses are particularly heavy. Preparing for danger in peacetime, taking precautions against problems, this article discusses how to do a good job in the bank's fire safety work.

I. Main problems of the banking system in fire safety management

1 , can not live, leaders do not pay attention

As the old saying goes: “The fire is poor the same day.” For a family, a fire can be utterly impoverished in the event of a bankruptcy. For the bank, it is not just money and things that are lost. It involves a very wide range of issues, and the aftermath will be very special. Many will lead to a variety of social conflicts and problems. Therefore, it is not only a simple economic issue, but also a social issue, to do a good job of the fire safety management of the banking system. Although banks have paid more and more attention to fire safety in recent years, there are still some people who do not understand fire safety and are not clear. It is believed that the focus of bank work is to develop business, and fire protection is a very important task. Fire protection will not be included in the planning and planning of the bank's work. There is a fluke and satisfaction that fire accidents can only be seen in television and news. It will never happen to oneself. There are also people who think that fire safety is the responsibility of the fire safety department. We only need to do a good job of the banking business. Fire safety has nothing to do with us.

2 , many fire factors, fire damage

Today, with the rapid development of science and technology, the use of electronic products, electrical circuits, various fire-fighting facilities, and security equipment and high-power electrical equipment is widely used at bank outlets, and the electricity load is rapidly expanding. Some old banks have a variety of safety hazards that do not meet the requirements for electrical design and installation. Wire aging and unwieldy connection are common. These hidden dangers may cause fire accidents caused by short circuits at any time. Banks extensively use electronic devices such as computers, cash registers, typewriters, fax machines, photocopiers, etc., as well as various air-conditioning, fire-fighting facilities, television monitoring, heating, etc., and their electricity load increases rapidly. Many bank outlets are over-decorated, and the materials used only speak beautifully, do not speak of the fire-retardant properties of decorative materials, and use flammable combustible materials in large quantities, leaving a particularly serious fire hazard. These hidden dangers in the event of a fire accident are a deadly blow to the banking industry.

3 , heavy hardware construction, light security management

With the rapid development of society and economy, there is no doubt that banks are paying more and more attention to fire safety. With the increase of national fire inspections and inspections, and the constant strengthening of the fire inspection and approval system, various banks have increasingly invested in fire safety. In the past, the shortcomings of inadequate fire equipment and inadequate fire protection facilities were gradually disappearing. As far as Shaanxi Province is concerned, the establishment of new banking outlets must be approved by fire control. After passing the inspection, it can be put into use and solve the inherent fire hazard problem at the source. However, many bank outlets lag far behind the hardware in the management of fire safety. The various fire safety inspection management systems are not implemented. Various types of fire safety equipment will not be used. Fire safety hazards will not be checked, and fire safety knowledge will not be known. Shortages in management are more prevalent.

4 , fire safety management team is not fixed

Many bank fire safety management personnel are highly mobile and frequently replaced. Fire safety management work is different from other work. There must be a certain cultural foundation, and special firefighting training I must be conducted. After a period of training, it can be done. But many banks in terms of selection and appointment, has always believed that fire safety is very minor in the unit, l do not attach importance to training and training management personnel of fire safety, fire safety managers in many units a year can change several, often are not familiar with The work was transferred to his post, causing the fire safety management personnel's ability to keep up with the development of facilities and equipment.

Second, do a good job in the banking system fire safety management countermeasures

The fire safety of the bank is to prevent it from being saved. In order to do a good job in fire safety, we must put the awareness of fire safety into every link of the work, shift the focus of the fire prevention work from the treatment after a fire accident to the prevention of a fire accident, and implement fire safety from the source. The various management systems ensure that there are no fire accidents at all branches of the bank and ensure the harmonious development of the bank's safe development.

1. Strengthen the sense of responsibility for bank fire safety

To ensure the fire safety of the unit is not only the bank’s own business, the requirements of its employees, but also the social requirements, and it is the desire of party committees and governments at all levels. Our bank companies must not only do their own business, but also do a good job in society. Bank leaders at all levels, especially fire safety management cadres, must establish a sense of safety prevention with “responsibility is more important than Mount Tai”, be highly responsible to the party and the masses, and do a good job in the implementation of fire safety management. However, the leading cadres of many of our banking systems still have poor fire safety awareness and ideological sympathy. Many fire cases show that the vast majority of fire accidents are caused by ideological paralysis and low vigilance. Therefore, we must have a sense of crisis, establish a sense of crisis, and tighten the string of fire safety in our banking system. Strengthen the sense of responsibility for bank fire safety.

2. Do a good job in the popularization of fire safety knowledge

Cases of fires that occurred in banks in the past indicate that the causes of fire accidents appear to be caused by factors such as electricity use, gas use, and careless use of fire. However, in reality, some employees lack awareness of fire safety and basic knowledge of fire protection. Therefore, the banking system must attach great importance to the fire safety publicity and education work, through a variety of ways and fire safety knowledge competition activities, combined with fire safety month, multi-channel, multi-angle, multi-level learning fire safety knowledge, improve the fire protection of all employees Safety quality and safety awareness, to solve the staff do not understand the common sense of fire and fire quality problems. The bank should do: It must have certain propaganda personnel, fire-fighting propaganda identities, and training 1 mechanism. Employees must master the knowledge of fire safety; they must have a clear identification of various fire-fighting facilities, and popularize fire safety knowledge among workers. All outlets and all employees must firmly establish the safety precautions of “prevention of fire and everyone’s responsibility” and implement bank’s fire prevention work at work and in daily life.

3 , do a good job of inspection and troubleshooting of fire safety hazards

The person in charge of the bank at all levels should understand the fire hazard, fire risk and fire prevention measures of the unit; understand the legal responsibilities that he should bear; and understand the methods and measures for the fire safety of the unit.

Focusing on banking office buildings, vaults, business outlets, and electronic devices such as computers, cash registers, typewriters, fax machines, and photocopiers, as well as various air-conditioning, fire-fighting facilities, television monitoring, and heating equipment, major fire safety inspections will be conducted. Check the status of the implementation of fire safety management and fire safety responsibility system in banking institutions and various business outlets, and rectification of hidden dangers in fire accidents. The fire safety inspection must be serious, serious, and serious, careful, careful, and careful, and do three combinations:

First, firefighting inspections in peacetime should be combined with special fire safety inspections, and fire safety inspections should be carried out to promote the unit's fire safety management work. The second is to combine the inspection of fire safety with the responsibility of the organization to implement fire safety management. Through inspections, the responsibility for fire safety management is put in place and specific to everyone. Third, fire safety inspections should be linked to random inspections and inspections. When carrying out fire safety inspections, it is necessary to highlight the focus of inspections, and to repeatedly grasp and recover from common problems and hidden dangers. Find problems and solve problems as early as possible through regular, universal inspection activities.

Bank units at all levels shall conscientiously implement the main responsibilities for fire safety, adhere to the principle of “who is responsible and who is responsible”, establish a layered responsibility system for decomposition, and be responsible for one level at a level. It is imperative to grasp the rectification work of fire hazards by grasping the momentum and work of business work. We must use administrative and economic means to supervise and rectify various hidden dangers in fire safety. Units should promptly convene various conferences on detected fire hazards, formulate rectification timetables, sign rectification responsibilities, and implement the rectification of fire safety hazards. If it is impossible to rectify changes within a short period of time, methods such as changing the nature of use should be used to eliminate all kinds of fire hazards and ensure the safe operation of banks. According to the regulations of the time node, the responsible persons of the various outlets that have not rectified the position shall be penalized for this punishment and must not be tolerated or relocated so as to avoid any disaster.

In short, to ensure the fire safety of banks, it is necessary to establish and improve the bank's fire safety management system and strictly implement the various fire safety management systems of the banking industry. All personnel, all-round, all-process, all-weather, and the formation of a system should be established. With unremitting efforts and long alarm bells, it is important to prevent and overcome the fire safety management work that is important to say, do it secondary, and do not get busy.
