Certainly, chances are that you wouldn't deliberately set a fire and you pro- bably don't know any- one who would either. But the trouble with arson is that there are more victims than fire- bugs -- most of them innocent victims. If an arsonist sets fire to your home, as an innocent victim your fire insuran- ce will cover the loss. But what if your work- tem shutoff ' valves should be ° adequately secured to prevent tam- pering by intruders. Flammable materials should be locked "away, denying the arsonist ready kindling. _ Workers should recognize -that -a .stran- ger seen on of near the premises* may pose, a threat to their well being and. report any, suspi- cious characters to the employer or everi to the police, . just .as .they would if they, suspected a burglar. was. prowling around. : place is destroyed by an a Be it your son or daughter, an extra driver in the house can make it a lot easier to get around.

Many, even though the loss may be fully insured,.. never open their doors _ again. In tough econo- mic times, such as those prevailing now in Cana- da, many businesses lose their customers while they are forced out of business following 4 fire. By the time they . can get back into pro- duction many business- men find they have lost their once reliable mar- kets. Others don't even bother to rebuild. Either way, their employees lose their jobs. Because of this every worker should be con- cerned about arson and take steps to protect the workplace. An import- ant first step is to dis- cuss the threat with em- ployer and fellow em- ployees. The employer can make sure that his operation had adequate security - anything from good locks to security guards where larger operations are involved. Buildings should have sprinkler systems and the master sprinkler sys- One of * the' major causes of arson 'fires is the vengeance. seeker, frequently-a disgruntled employee. Recently such a person set a $5 million 'fire. in. a ,Cana- dian oil refinery, While it may. seem. distasteful, any worker aware of threats made bya: dis- gruntled employee should report... such threats.. Employees; who have been. discharged for any. reason,and who persist' in hanging around -- the, .premises, should also be.reported. A discharged employee has no-more right than a casual stranger to be on the premises once the discharge procedure has been completed... InJarge commercial or industrial operations, a plant safety committee may be an. effective clearing house for moni- toring and reporting threatening situations. Recognition, prepa- ration and vigilance are a small price to pay for protecting one's job. It's tragedy enough seeing jobs wiped out by legit- imatefires; it's worse tc have them burned up bj an arsonist.
