Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Fire Extinguisher
Safety Training
This training program was established to create a broader
awareness for the safety of the University of Northern Iowa
students, faculty and staff and their environment.
Fire Basics
Fire Extinguisher Overview
Types of Fire Extinguishers
Following the P.A.S.S Technique
UNI Homepage
2. 2
• Fire extinguishers are designed to put out or
control small fires. A small fire, if not checked
immediately, will soon spread out of control. It is
important, therefore, that we equip our facilities
with the proper fire extinguishers as part of our
fire protection plan.

Staying Informed & Up-To-Date.
• Implementing a fire extinguisher
safety program and informing
occupants of the specific
building’s fire safety procedures
are essential.
• Knowing about the different
classes of fires and different
types of fire extinguishers CANCAN
save lives.
4. 4
Fight or Flee?
• A fire is the most common type of emergency for which all
businesses must plan. A critical decision when planning is whether
or not employees should fight a small fire with a portable fire
extinguisher or simply evacuate. Small fires can often be put out
quickly with a portable fire extinguisher. However, to do this
safely, the employee must understand the use and limitation of a
portable fire extinguisher and the hazards associated with fighting
fires.
5. 5
For Fires to Exist…
… the following four elements must be present at the same time.
• Enough oxygen to sustain combustion.
• Enough heat to raise the material to its ignition temperature.
• Some sort of fuel or combustible material.
• The chemical reaction is .
Oxygen + heat + fuel =
Remove any one, no fire
7. 7
How Fire Extinguishers Work?
Portable fire extinguishers apply an
extinguishing agent that will either cool
burning fuel, displace or remove
oxygen, or stop the chemical reaction so
a fire cannot continue to burn. When the
handle of an extinguisher is
compressed, it opens an inner canister
of high-pressure gas that forces the
extinguishing agent from the main
cylinder through a siphon tube and out
the nozzle. A fire extinguisher works
much like a can of hair spray.
8. 8
• The extinguisher must be right
for the type of fire.
• It must be located where it can
be easily reached.
• It must be in good working
order.
• The fire must be discovered
while it is still small.
• The person using the
extinguisher must be trained to
use it properly.
For a fire extinguisher to be effective…
...the following conditions must be met.
9. 9
Labeling the Extinguisher.
All portable fire extinguishers must be
approved by a nationally recognized
testing laboratory such as Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc. (UL) or Factory
Mutual Research (FM) to verify
compliance with applicable standards
1910.157(c)(2).
Equipment that passes the laboratory's
tests are labeled and given an alpha-
numeric classification based on the type
and size of fire it will extinguish.
10. 10
For Example...
The letters (A, B, and C) represent the types of fires for which the extinguisher
has been approved.
The number in front of the rating indicates how much water the extinguisher is
equal to and represents 1.25 gallons of water for every unit of one. For
example, a 4-A rated extinguisher would be equal to five (4 x 1.25) gallons of
water.
The number in front of the B rating represents the area in square feet of a class
B fire that a non-expert user should be able to extinguish. Using the above
example, a non-expert user should be able to put out a flammable liquid fire
that is as large as 10 square feet.
1-A:10-BC

Types of Fire Extinguishers.
• Air pressurized water extinguishers
• Carbon Dioxide extinguishers
• Dry Chemical Extinguishers
Different types of fire extinguishers are designed to
fight different types of fires. The three most common types
of fire extinguishers are:
12. 12
• Water is one of the most commonly used extinguishing agents for
type A fires. You can recognize an APW by its large silver container.
They are filled about two-thirds of the way with ordinary water, then
pressurized with air. In some cases, detergents are added to the water
to produce a foam. They stand about two to three feet tall and weigh
approximately 25 pounds when full.
• APWs extinguish fire by cooling the surface of the fuel to remove the
"heat" element of the fire triangle.
• APWs are designed for Class A (wood, paper, cloth, rubber, and
certain plastics) fires only.
Air-pressurized water extinguishers
13. 13
APW
Air-pressurized Water Extinguisher
• Never use water to extinguish flammable liquid fires.
Water is extremely ineffective at extinguishing this type of fire
and may make matters worse by the spreading the fire.
• Never use water to extinguish an electrical fire. Water
is a good conductor and may lead to electrocution if used to
extinguish an electrical fire. Electrical equipment must be
unplugged and/or de-energized before using a water
extinguisher on an electrical fire.
14. 14
Carbon Dioxide extinguishers
• This type of extinguisher is filled with Carbon Dioxide (CO2), a non-
flammable gas under extreme pressure. These extinguishers put out fires
by displacing oxygen, or taking away the oxygen element of the fire
triangle. Because of its high pressure, when you use this extinguisher
pieces of dry ice shoot from the horn, which also has a cooling effect on
the fire. You can recognize this type of extinguisher by its hard horn and
absent pressure gauge.
• CO2 cylinders are red and range in size from five to 100 pounds or larger.
• CO2 extinguishers are designed for Class B and C (flammable liquid and
electrical) fires only.
15. 15
CO2 extinguishers
Carbon Dioxide
• CO2 is not recommended for Class A fires because they
may continue to smolder and re-ignite after the CO2
dissipates.
• Never use CO2 extinguishers in a confined space while
people are present without proper respiratory protection.
16. 16
Dry Chemical extinguishers
• Dry chemical extinguishers put out fires by coating the fuel with a thin
layer of fire retardant powder, separating the fuel from the oxygen. The
powder also works to interrupt the chemical reaction, which makes these
extinguishers extremely effective.
• Dry chemical extinguishers are usually rated for class B and C fires and
may be marked multiple purpose for use in A, B, and C fires. They
contain an extinguishing agent and use a compressed, non-flammable gas
as a propellant.
• Dry Chemical extinguishers will have a label indicating they may be used
on class A, B, and/or C fires.
OROR
17. 17
• Locations:
Extinguishers will frequently be found in industrial vehicles, hallways,
mechanical rooms, offices, computer labs, and flammable liquid storage areas.
Where to find fire extinguishers?
18. 18
• Sound the fire alarm and call 911, and/or UNI Public Safety.
• Select a safe evacuation path before approaching the fire, do not allow
the heat, smoke, or fire come between you and the evacuation path.
• Discharge the fire extinguisher with its appropriate range using the
P.A.S.S techniques (pull, aim, squeeze, sweep).
• Back away from an extinguished fire in case it flames up.
• Evacuate immediately if the fire extinguisher is empty and the fire is
not yet out.
• Evacuate immediately if the fire progresses passed the incipient stage.
While in the process of evacuating double checking letting others
aware of the fire taking place.
Using a Fire Extinguisher
The following steps should be followed when responding to incipient stage fire:
* Incipient stage fire:
The fire is limited to the original material ignited, it is contained (such as in a waste basket) and has not spread
to other materials. The flames are no higher than the firefighter's head.
