Do you assume that your employees know how to operate a fire extinguisher or do you know, because they have been trained in fire safety? Do you know that in the event of an emergency they will use the correct extinguisher for the particular type of fire - or are you just hoping they will? Do your employees know the steps to take to help prevent fires in the first place?

Workplace fire hazards exist and need to be addressed. This fire safety course is designed for everyone who needs to know the basics of fire safety in the workplace.

The course provides guidance for the correct use of fire extinguishers for different classes of fires. Trainees will learn first hand the properties of fire and how to extinguish them before they get out of hand.
