I started at Kodak in 1979. This film was part of my induction training. I always found HS&E training at Kodak to be first class. This film is a good example of the quality we were subject to. It's quite nostalgic for me. Thanks for posting.

This is the most informative Fire Safety Film I have ever seen. I am glad I watched this video; I have learned a lot about how to use fire extinguishers.

+rodi mehe We still use halon in the US.

[@AndrooUK]

+rodi mehe I thought halon and equivalent ozone damaging agents still had permitted uses with special licences for some critical operations, even outside of the USA?

Always good to look over fire extinguisher information.

[@ZakWolf]

Back when bells were more commonly used as fire alarms in the UK; nowadays they mostly use electronic sounders.

[@relevanteaglealarms109]

Electronics with strobes.

When he used the co2 extinguisher on liquid fire, he used it so close the fire could of splashed setting him and other things on fire!

[@blakesliberator3197]

Interesting!

[@jkk45]

Ahhhhhh the Kodak Tower. All gone for yuppie flats now.

[@michaelturner4457]

These days all fire extinguishers are red, no matter what type it is, water, foam, powder, etc. CO2 extinguishers are no longer black.

[@jkk45]

What happens if I don't have a white coat to hand? Can I still use an extinguisher?

[@contactacb]

The alternative dress code is high heels, skirt and blouse.... (@3.22)!

[@mehistaimsaar1323]

Or a wool and rubber with some amount of cork.

[@mistofoles]

WTF? The fire engine was there within 3 seconds of the alarm going off??

[@howitsmadeinstruments4314]

It was right next door

[@jkk45]

Very efficient service.

[@willardcrafto]

Who were those call points made by

[@contactacb]

The Signal Alarm Company Limited, used by many alarm system manufacturers and distributors with custom printed break glasses such as the AFA ones in the film

[@jamesshore2987]

They were unusual weren’t they?

[@justinbryant9419]

This is early 1970s?

[@contactacb]

Late 1970's as it includes L&G branded examples of the new Thomas Glover 'Series 2000' squeeze grip plastic valve controlled discharge gas cartridge operated extinguishers which first came on the market in 1978/9
