Chevron conducts fire safety seminar for Harley Owners Group Manila, emergency responders

To help spread information on fire safety, Chevron Philippines, Inc. (CPI) — the official marketer of Caltex products in the country— conducted a safety seminar for terminal emergency responders and for members of the Harley Owners Group Manila Chapter (HOG Manila). 

Around 40 HOG Manila riders attended the training at the Batangas Terminal.

HOG Manila President Yen Roxas extended the group’s appreciation to Chevron Philippines for such an event.

“This is very helpful for our members, because they learned how to prevent fires along with the proper method on how to extinguish one. Ideally, we have fire extinguishers in our homes and offices, but we don’t really know how to use one. Here, they had actual experience with a real fire set-up,” he was quoted as saying."

Roxas said that the mission of the riders’ group is “to be the most organized, disciplined, and safe riding group in the Philippines.”

Chevron Batangas Terminal Operations Manager Dodie Umali said that the company's latest commemoration of the Fire Prevention Month (in coordination with the Bureau of Fire Protection) was to further “spread awareness on fire safety and help more people know how to use a fire extinguisher properly.”

 “At Chevron Philippines, safety is a priority. We train our people to be confident in responding to emergencies such as fires. With our mutual advocacy for safety, we partnered with HOG Manila Chapter so that they can experience how to handle a fire extinguisher in a safe environment to manage incipient or small fires. With more members of the public knowing how to put out a fire we can save more lives and property,” he added.
