Fire Safety Training

Fire Safety & Awareness

This Fire Safety Awareness Training Course is ideal for classes of between six and twenty staff.

Worksafe UK's half day (3hr) comprehensive Staff Fire Awareness Training Course is delivered at your place of work.

Courses can be customised to suit your needs, for example, to take into account specific features of your premises or nature of business undertaken.

Current fire safety legislation* makes a statutory duty for employers (and those in control of a premises) to: 'ensure that his employees are provided with adequate safety training'. *Source: Article 21(1) The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005

For your peace of mind, all our trainers meet the 'competent persons' criteria as set out in Article 18(5) of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Many are former experienced Fire Brigade Officers, each with many years of service. Their experience allows them to go 'off script' where necessary to deal with questions relating to issues specific to your workplace.

A comprehensive booklet is provided to all candidates to support the 'Staff Fire Awareness Course' syllabus and is particularly useful as an individual fire safety reference book for future use.
