Energypac conducts fire safety awareness campaign to enhance community preparedness

Energypac Power Generation PLC recently organized a Fire Safety Awareness Campaign at Dhanua High School in Sreepur, Gazipur, to strengthen fire safety awareness among students, teachers, parents, and school staff.

As part of the campaign, a hands-on fire safety training session was held recently on the school premises. Conducted by Mahadi Hasan, Senior Manager, HSE, Energypac Power Generation PLC, the session provided practical guidance on fire prevention, emergency response, life safety, the proper use of portable fire extinguishers, and safe evacuation procedures during emergencies.

Around 310 participants, including students, teachers, parents, and guardians, attended the session. Through interactive demonstrations and practical exercises, participants gained first-hand experience of essential fire safety techniques, helping strengthen preparedness within the school community.

The initiative comes at a time when fire safety remains a critical public concern in Bangladesh. According to the Fire Service and Civil Defence (FSCD), the country recorded 27,059 fire incidents in 2025—an average of approximately 75 incidents each day. Electrical faults remained the leading cause of these fires, underscoring the importance of improving public understanding of fire prevention, safe electrical practices, and emergency response.

By equipping participants with practical knowledge and emergency response skills, the campaign sought to encourage safer practices and foster a stronger culture of fire safety within the community.

Energypac Power Generation PLC remains committed to implementing meaningful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives that promote public safety, sustainability, and community development across Bangladesh.
