Forty-six percents of fires in Korea during 2011 were due to carelessness. A little more attention could reduce property damage and protect loss of human lives. The multiple regression analysis shows that more fires occurred among the construction companies (p<0.1) while fewer fires were observed among the business companies (p<0.05) and in urbanized areas (p<0.05). The regions which are more vulnerable to fire were occupied with many construction companies and the more urbanized regions with many business companies were found safer in terms of fire hazard. This finding indicates that more urbanized regions and business companies tend to have larger fire protecting capacities including sufficient fire-fighting equipments. On the other hand, construction companies may contain facilities and equipments which are vulnerable to fire. Further efforts should be given to improve fire protecting capacities and reduce vulnerabilities of fire.
Abstract
Forty-six percents of fires in Korea during 2011 were due to carelessness. A little more attention could reduce property damage and protect loss of human lives. The multiple regression analysis shows that more fires occurred among the construction companies (p<0.1) while fewer fires were observed among the business companies (p<0.05) and in urbanized areas (p<0.05). The regions which are more vulnerable to fire were occupied with many construction companies and the more urbanized regions with many business companies were found safer in terms of fire hazard. This finding indicates that more urbanized regions and business companies tend to have larger fire protecting capacities including sufficient fire-fighting equipments. On the other hand, construction companies may contain facilities and equipments which are vulnerable to fire. Further efforts should be given to improve fire protecting capacities and reduce vulnerabilities of fire.
