Description
Protecting against hazards involves implementing proactive measures to identify, assess, and mitigate risks that threaten people, property, or the environment. This strategy encompasses establishing safety protocols, emergency preparedness plans, and protective infrastructure to reduce vulnerability and prevent harm. By addressing specific threats—such as natural disasters, industrial accidents, or health hazards—these actions aim to minimize damage, ensure rapid response, and safeguard communities, thereby enhancing resilience and continuity in the face of potential dangers.
