Confident actions when the alarm sounds
In the event of a fire, the actions of employees are often the difference between safe evacuation and serious harm. Fire Awareness Training gives all staff a foundation-level understanding of how fire spreads, how it is extinguished, and what they need to do when they discover a fire or hear the alarm. Delivered on-site at your premises and anchored to your fire risk assessment, alarm system and evacuation plan.
