FIRE WARDEN TRAINING COURSE

If your company employs 5 or more staff it is now a legal requirement to ensure your staff are sufficiently trained in how to raise the alarm, evacuation and the use of fire fighting equipment.

Ask yourself this:

• Do you or your staff know your legal responsibilities?

• Has the role of fire wardens in your workplace been defined?

• Are you aware of how to identify fire hazards to reduce the likelihood of a fire starting?

• Does everyone know their individual responsibilities in ensuring good housekeeping, reporting observations and keeping up to date records?

• Is everyone aware of the appropriate action to take if a fire occurs?

• Are staff familiar with their escape routes, fire prevention measures and safety equipment?

• Does your company have a evacuation procedure and a contingency plan?

• Are you aware of the different types of extinguishers and how to identify which is which?

• Would you know which extinguisher to use in an electrical fire and which to use on a cooking oil fire?

• If a fire broke out tomorrow would you or your colleagues know how to activate a fire extinguisher effectively and tackle a small fire safely?

If your answer is NO to any of the above then please think about our Fire Warden Training Course. Be assured it is important!
