Fire Fighting
Developing Fire Safety Awareness and Supporting Effective Emergency Response
Fire remains one of the most significant risks facing organisations. While prevention is always the primary objective, every workplace should ensure that its personnel understand basic fire safety principles and their responsibilities during a fire emergency.
This programme develops awareness of fire behaviour, common causes of workplace fires, fire prevention measures and the Security Officer’s role in supporting organisational fire safety and emergency procedures.
Programme Overview
Fire emergencies require calm decision-making, effective communication and a clear understanding of organisational emergency procedures.
Security Officers frequently become the first people to recognise a developing fire emergency, initiate reporting procedures and support emergency coordination until specialist emergency services arrive.
This programme develops fire safety awareness and complements practical fire training delivered within approved workplace and statutory requirements.
