When emergencies happen, every second counts. Preparation, awareness, and the ability to act quickly can make the difference between danger and safety. At Phelps Dodge Philippines, fire safety is not just a compliance requirement—it is a shared responsibility embedded in the company’s culture.
On March 6, 2026, a Fire Drill was conducted in partnership with the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) at Phelps Dodge Philippines Energy Products Corporation. The activity aimed to strengthen employee readiness and ensure that everyone can respond effectively in the event of a fire incident.
A key highlight of the activity was the demonstration of the PASS method—a simple yet essential technique for the proper use of a fire extinguisher. Through this hands-on learning experience, employees gained practical knowledge and awareness that can help prevent and respond to fire-related emergencies.
Fire drills provide valuable opportunities for teams to practice calmness, coordination, and vigilance in the workplace. By equipping employees with essential safety knowledge, Phelps Dodge ensures that safety is never left to chance.
Beyond procedures and protocols, this initiative reflects a deeper commitment: protecting people, safeguarding operations, and fostering a workplace where everyone looks out for one another.
Because when seconds matter, preparation saves lives.
Stay Ready. Stay Safe. At Phelps Dodge, safety is more than a practice—it’s a promise.
