Why is fire warden training important?

Fire is probably the biggest risk to life that most people face at work, with around 50 people being killed and over 2000 seriously injured every year. To minimise the risk of fire in the workplace, it is vital that everyone is aware of the common causes of fire and the appropriate actions to take in the event of a fire, including how to escape safely from the scene.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO), a responsible person within your organisation MUST carry out a fire risk assessment, produce a fire emergency plan, and implement and maintain a fire risk management system.

Our fire safety training courses have been designed to provide you, and your company, with the knowledge and understanding of fire safety required to ensure you meet your legal obligations.
