Fire Safety Training

Is your business Safe & Compliant?

Fire safety training isn’t a choice for your business, the law says YOU MUST PROVIDE IT for all your employees.

Fire safety is a fundamental part of any business and training is the corner stone of implementing any fire safety policy.

Legislation via the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires employers to provide training for all employees in actions to be taken in the event of a fire.

What type of training is available?

Training can range from basic fire safety awareness to the practical use of fire extinguishers and the management of a fire situation with Fire Warden Training.

Fire Warden & Fire Awareness Courses

How many trained fire wardens are required in a commercial property?

As a basic guide, you will require at least one warden per 20 people, with at least one warden per floor within the property.

Fire Wardens – play a crucial role in helping to evacuate colleagues safely from a building, which not only saves lives but helps assist fire fighters arriving at the scene.
