Fire Safety Training

“Safety is all about prevention; legislation is all about other peoples misfortunes”

To understand and implement your legal requirements is just the beginning, but to have the whole of your workforce involved in safety is the aim. We can offer a range of staff training packages including our in-house practical training session. To arrange training give us a call or fill in an online enquiry form.

All employees need to know what action should be taken in the event of a fire, including;

• How to raise the alarm to warn others
• The location and use of fire escape routes
• The use of portable fire extinguishers
• How to assist visitors and/or members of the public
• Location of the nominated assembly point
• How to contact the fire and rescue service

The legislation states that….
“ Everyone should know what hazards the fire extinguishers are provided to cover (what fire risk each appliance is designed to cover) and the dangers of using the wrong extinguishers (on the wrong fire risk). Sufficient numbers of employees trained in the use of extinguishers should always be present when the workplace is occupied. The training provided should ensure these tasks are carried out efficiently and safely”
