As a recent consequence of Brexit and Furlough, many companies have seen a variety of staff disruptions. One result these staff changes can bring is a lack of fire training knowledge within your company.
Maybe now is the time to re-evaluate your staff fire training requirements.
Why is fire safety important in the workplace?
Not only do we want our employees to feel comfortable and happy whilst at work but at the same time SAFE.
Fires cause severe injury and even death.
According to an HSE statistic, one person dies each week due to a fire-related accident.
Make sure you and your staff are not part of this statistic.
