  • Implemented cluster analysis to identify relationships between fire incidents and hotel characteristics
  • Developed an integral risk indicator to evaluate hotel safety levels
  • Established a close relationship between fire incidents and electrical appliance malfunctions (0.98–0.88 correlation)
  • Linked fire risk patterns to degrees of fire resistance and building height in hotels
  • Proposed a multi-faceted risk evaluation tool for assessing hotel security

Abstract

Abstract Fire safety management in hotels is a critically important area in today’s conditions. Assessing fire risks in hotels requires a comprehensive approach, which includes not only the development and implementation of effective fire detection and extinguishing systems, but also the organisation of training for staff and guests in actions in case of danger. In this context, the analysis of fire risks and fire safety management in hotels becomes extremely important to ensure the safety of all those present in hotel premises. The main idea of the article is to identify the dominant factors of fire risks in hotels in Ukraine, which contribute to the classification and identification of patterns of their impact on the state of fire safety in hotels. Based on cluster analysis, a close relationship was established between the number of fires that occurred due to malfunctions of electrical appliances depending on their type at the level of 0.98–0.88, and the degree of fire resistance and number of floors of hotels. An integral risk indicator was proposed, which takes into account three types of risks and makes it possible to assess the level of security of the hotel building.
