Fire Warden (1 day)

Who is this course for?

The course is aimed at all staff in your workplace, particularly those who are designated as a Fire Warden or Fire Marshall. It will give them a greater awareness of the threats posed by fire, how to avoid a fire starting and spreading, and the action to be taken by a Fire Warden in the event of a fire and the day to day role (fire safety checks).

There are two Fire Warden courses available. There is the option to attend an extended Fire Warden course which will also include a Fire Awareness refresher.
