Fire Safety Course

About the course

Every year, the fire service attends hundreds of thousands of fires around the UK. While a considerable number of these are domestic fires, a significant number are fires that start in the workplace.

The most obvious danger from fire is the risk of sustaining burns, but fire also causes many other threats to safety that may not be immediately apparent.

Following the introduction of the new Regulatory Reform (fire safety) Order 2005 all companies are obliged to ensure that employees receive adequate training in fire safety on a yearly basis, as well as having a full risk assessment carried out on their premises.

This course allows companies to keep employees aware of all the key information regarding fire safety in the workplace. On completion candidates will have a clear understanding of fire safety in the context of their work environment.

If you’re in charge of fire risk assessments or overseeing evacuation procedures, this course is a good starting point but you may need further training including any equipment specific practical training.
