The importance of fire safety training in the workplace and working environment is underpinned by our current health an safety legislation. This legislation places a duty of care on employers to ensure, so far as is “reasonably practicable”, the health, safety and welfare of it’s employees and others.  This can be achieved by having sound emergency practices and procedures in place, supported by appropriately trained personnel to assist in emergency situations.

Our  Fire Safety Training Level 2 course sets the foundation standard in fire safety training and is designed to help organisations and companies meet their legal requirements.  It is suitable for managers and employees whose role or responsibility is to ensure that fire safety is maintained.  The course syllabus is very detailed and will cover topics such as:
