The Hong Kong Apartment Fire: Parallels ,the Safety gaps that can cause a “fire” in your small business.

When I heard about the Hong Kong fire, where ignored safety rules and poor oversight led to tragedy, it made me stop and think about my own situation. I’d already been feeling overwhelmed trying to put together a safety program, especially after realizing how unprepared we were for our upcoming COR audit. Then I remembered the story my friend told me about working for a company that treated safety like an afterthought—right up until it cost them their contract after a fatal incident. Seeing the Hong Kong fire in the news was the final push. It was a reminder that when safety gets ignored, whether it’s a massive building overseas or a small business here at home, the consequences are real. That’s when I knew I needed proper support, not just a checklist, to make sure my business never ended up in the same situation.
