Fire Safety Awareness
This Fire Safety Awareness course provides an insight into fire regulations and precautions in the Workplace as basic fire safety standards and we deliver this course at your venue by qualified Firefighters with a teaching qualification.
Every year, many people die or have seriously injury as a result of fire in the workplace.
It is imperative for the workplace that the employer, owner or occupier ensures that their premises meet fire safety regulations, while ensuring all employees and visitors know what to do in the event of fire.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (FSO) requires the ‘responsible person to take reasonable measures to reduce the risk from fire and ensure safe exits and escape routes for both employees and visitors. The FSO requires the responsible person to:
- Ensure all employees receive adequate safety training
- Appoint one or more ‘competent persons’ to assist with fire safety in the workplace
- Provide them with adequate training in order to reduce the risks from fire hazards.
- Ensure that the necessary assessments of fire risks in the workplace are taken to which relevant persons may be exposed, for the purpose of identifying general fire precautions.
