OVERVIEW

Our Fire Compliance Awareness training package is designed to provide the skills and knowledge required to confine small emergencies in a facility and applies to occupants who are required to have first attack firefighting skills, work within the command, control and coordination structure of an Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) and/or required to make decisions about the safety of occupants during a facility emergency and to give instructions on the priority order for responding to an emergency incident.

Regular evacuation training will ensure that your personnel are ready to deal with any workplace emergency.

Delivered over four to six sessions over the course of two years (depending on your facilities requirements), our training package helps achieve compliance in accordance with relevant legislation and eliminates the stress of uncertainty when responding to an emergency.
