Yes - In case of a fire, fire extinguishers are the only means of combating fire or else alternately one has to evacuate the premises. All Workplaces require Fire Extinguishers - ideally Dry ABC Type which are capable of extinguishing all classes of fires - Type A, B & C, These also need to be validated by a Fire Fighting Specialist Company as operational. Since fire extinguishers have limited capacity to combat fire - typically 10 to 15 seconds it is also necessary to train persons how to use the fire extinguisher as one needs to hit the base of fire during the time of use.
