The course will provide training on the causes of workplace fires and their prevention; what to do when you discover a fire; raising the alarm and evacuation; role of a Fire Warden and highlight particular fire risks and methods of fire fighting. This includes instruction on the colour coding of fire extinguishers and which type if safe and appropriate to use depending on the fire source and fuel load. Correct training in the use of fire extinguishers is essential. Many places of work have mixed types of fire extinguisher and with all extinguishers being the same colour, using the wrong type may prove fatal. And part of our training sessions, there are (subject to weather etc.), practical demonstrations during which delegates are able to participate by using two different fire extinguishers. |
