May is Building Safety Month
4/29/2018 (Permalink)
May is 2018 Building Safety Month, as sponsored by the ICC, or International Code Council. Also, May 13 - May 19 is Preparing for Natural Disasters Week, something that we here at SERVPRO Bedford Park/Burbank feel strongly about.
This is the 38th year that the ICC has designated May as Building Safety Month. And, according to their website:
"All communities need building codes to protect their citizens from disasters like fires, weather related events, and structural collapse. Building codes are society's best way of protecting homes, offices, schools, manufacturing facilities, stores, and entertainment venues."
SERVPRO Bedford Park/Burbank believes that preparation is the key. That is why we have been working with commercial clients using the Emergency Ready Program. You can read about the ERP in another blog on this website: (SERVPRObedfordparkburbank.com/blog/post/34308/commercial/free-program-for-commercial-clients).
If you are a property manager or owner, take a few minutes to look around your facility and ask this question: "Are we ready if a fire, storm, or other unforeseen event would strike?" Whether the answer is a yes or no, make sure you have our phone number plugged into your phone: 708-430-3600, because we are ready to take your call and assist you, regardless of the event!
