It happens because safety standards developed by independent nonprofit organizations, like the National Fire Protection Association   (NFPA  ), are working behind the scenes. Even when we don’t see them, fire, life and electrical codes and standards help protect our homes, families, and communities. But now, special interests are pushing to roll back these vital protections.

Codes and Standards

WHAT ARE
SAFETY STANDARDS,
AND WHY DO
THEY MATTER?

For more than 125 years, safety standards have protected people and property. Safety codes exist because people get harmed without them. These safety standards help our communities better prepare for current threats and have dramatically reduced dangers like fire incidents and deaths.

Get Involved

TELL YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS:
SAFETY STANDARDS MATTER.

The safety system that protects people and property is under threat. At every level of government, there is a lack of understanding about the critical role independently developed standards play. Special interests are taking action that would weaken, bypass or even dismantle this highly effective process. Join us to make sure your voice is heard when it matters most.
