Why complete a Fire Warden Training course?
To enable the nominated Fire Warden to be effective in the event of a Fire emergency and structured throughout their ongoing roles to prevent a fire from occurring and encourage occupants to be fire safety aware.
Why does your organisation need Fire Warden Training?
Because in the event of a fire, trained fire wardens are essential in minimising the risk of serious injury or death during evacuation. They are also crucial to ensuring that the premises is assessed regularly for fire prevention/safety, that other occupants/employees are using good practise to avoid a fire occurring and to minimise the risk of fire spreading/escape routes being compromised.

The trainer can review your emergency plan and fire safety policy and how this is communicated to your employees to help enhance the management of fire safety procedures and policies. This can help to ensure a speedy and efficient safe evacuation of your area in an emergency.
