pool safety
Aquatic hazard awareness
Pool safety refers to precautions and practices that prevent drowning and injuries in and around swimming pools.
It encompasses physical barriers like fences and covers, supervision requirements, and rules about running or diving.
The term appears most often in contexts involving children: The daycare requires all staff to complete pool safety training.
Municipal codes typically mandate specific pool safety features for residential and public pools.
