Fire hazards are conditions or materials that increase the risk of a fire starting or spreading. Common fire hazards include flammable liquids, faulty electrical wiring, and cluttered spaces that can block escape routes. Understanding these hazards is essential for preventing fires in homes and workplaces. To reduce fire hazards, it is important to follow safety guidelines, such as storing flammable materials properly and ensuring that smoke detectors are functional. Regular maintenance of electrical systems and keeping exits clear can also help minimize the risk of fire and protect lives and property.
