Keeping Your Businesses Safe
Serving a population of nearly a million residents, Gwinnett Police and Fire and Emergency Services strive to keep our communities safe. Each department provides specialized services to help keep local businesses protected, including the Gwinnett Safe Communities Program and the Workplace Safety Program.
Safe work environments are key to any thriving business. The Workplace Safety Program is a course designed to improve the fire safety of local businesses. Training — including fire prevention, safe building evacuations, portable fire extinguisher usage and hands-only CPR/AED — can help to save lives and protect properties. Through the Gwinnett Safe Communities Program, Gwinnett Police collaborates with community stakeholders to provide access to best-inclass technologies (like cameras, license plate readers and more) to provide County agencies with more information so that they can respond to emergency situations more efficiently and effectively.
Safety practices implemented into your business can reduce the risk of danger and injuries. To learn more about the Workplace Safety Program, email FirePrograms@GwinnettCounty.com. To join the Gwinnett Safe Communities Network, visit GwinnettSafeCommunities.com
