Fire warden training courses for your staff

In addition to making sure that your employees are trained in fire awareness, it is also a legal requirement that your business provides a number of fire wardens (or fire marshals as they are also known), to monitor and maintain fire safety in the workplace.

Following the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it is necessary for you to assign fire wardens for your business with the responsibility of ensuring that fire safety is taken seriously and all procedures / equipment are up to date.

The exact figure for the total of fire wardens you will need shall be determined by the findings of the Fire Risk Assessment which is conducted on your business premises. These fire wardens will need to undergo a training course to provide enough cover in the event of a fire and to frequently monitor the fire safety equipment installed on the premises including the all important fire alarm system.

The training course should be conducted by experienced fire safety personnel and you can find these services located throughout the UK. The training itself consists of a presentation followed by practical handling of fire safety equipment, with the opportunity to tackle a variety of controlled fires. Upon completion of the course, the fire warden will be presented with a certificate verifying their achievement.

The importance of fire awareness training to a business

There are many reasons as to why companies should ensure that their staff is well trained in fire safety and awareness. However, it is now a legal requirement that a business trains its employees for fire safety procedures in the workplace.

That is why it is necessary to regularly check your company’s equipment and the procedures currently in place, when it comes to something as important as fire safety.

If your organisation would benefit from fire awareness courses where your staff are trained by highly experienced professional instructors, then be sure to consider the excellent services available for you to book today.

The fire awareness course will provide each individual with the level of information and knowledge required to consider themselves proficient in basic fire safety at work. There are a number of other courses that you could choose to go on, including a fire training for managers course to be able to appraise the level of fire safety within a workplace.

Fire safety is important to a business not only to satisfy the current legislation, but to protect your employees and assets should a fire break out. It is a fact that there are over 2,000 arson attacks per week in England and Wales, affecting over 350 businesses and public buildings. So don’t ever get complacent that it couldn’t happen to your company; protect your business by training your workers in fire awareness.
