Fire Training
Why do I need fire training? this is a question we are asked regularly, we answer this question with our own questions
Q - You have fire extinguishers installed? A - yes of course
Q – You have fire extinguishers serviced? A – Of course every one does
Q – Do you know how to use them? A - ?.....
Q – More importantly do all your staff know how to use them? A - ?......
Q – Do you know which extinguisher is used for each risk ? A - ?......
Q – Have you ever used a fire extinguisher? A - ?......
After these questions have been answered (or not in most cases) people realise the need for fire training, it is important that ALL staff are regularly trained in the need & use of fire extinguishers, MORE IMPORTANTLY IT IS FIRE SAFETY LAW.
Imagine a small controllable fire which could be extinguished by a trained employee becoming a disaster simply because they did not know how or were afraid to use a fire extinguisher (which you have paid good money to have installed & serviced!!!!)
Our fire training services give the confidence & know how on all aspects of use of fire extinguishers, plus tips & advice on your fire evacuation procedures.
