Description

Overview

This course equips employees with the necessary knowledge to be able to respond efficiently and effectively should fire become a threat to your business.

We find employees are reluctant to use fire extinguishers due to a lack of knowledge in how to operate them. If the incorrect extinguishing agent is applied to a fire it could result in further spread and danger to life.

Therefore it is imperative that employees are equipped with the correct training to be able to make the right decisions in an emergency, prevent further damage to property and ensure their personal safety.

Using a combination of theory and practical learning this Extinguisher Training course is invaluable to improve safety in any workplace.
