Fire Safety Training

Current fire safety legislation requires all employers to ensure their staff have some form of fire safety training. It does not though say exactly what form that training should take, and this has led to some confusion as to what’s required. Broadly speaking, the level of training should be related to the risks posed in the workplace. If the risk is very low, like in a small office, the training can be very basic; a car maintenance workshop naturally suggests a higher risk of fire, and therefore more training would be required.

In this factsheet we cover basics of Fire Safety Training, including the risks of fire and what actions should be taken in case of fire.

Sample Extract

For small, low risk workplaces, the training could consist of a walk around the premises and short discussion with the staff, covering all the points required in the regulations, e.g. where the fire escape routes are, how to raise the alarm and how to use the fire extinguishers. It’s always a good idea to keep a record of what training was given including the dates and who was present.
