Do you know how to react in a fire emergency?
Every person can benefit from fire safety training. Whether this is practical or online training, knowing what to do in the event of a fire incident is essential. Remaining composed during an emergency is one thing, but being proactive and carrying out the recommended actions set out by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is another. Employees, regardless of their job role or position within an organisation, should complete at least a Fire Safety Awareness course for their own safety.
Organisations must also nominate a Responsible Person to carry out fire risk assessments, implement appropriate fire safety measures, and ensure that staff receive suitable fire safety training.
Fire presents an immense hazard, and the consequences of a fire can be devastating. By focusing on prevention, we put ourselves and others in a far safer position if a fire were ever to break out. Knowing how to install and check fire alarms in the workplace, understanding the emergency exits, and being able to competently carry out a fire risk assessment are all far better than being unprepared.
Training staff in the basics of fire safety, including how to use fire extinguishers, can be incorporated into their induction. Keeping the organisation compliant with health and safety requirements should also include regular refresher courses.
When the consequences of a resulting fire accident being not only damaging and costly but importantly life changing, properly trained staff will be in a better position to not only protect themselves, and those around them but at preventing accidental fires. Employees should receive fire safety training as it's legal requirement in the UK as stated in the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
