Fire Aware
This course is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of fire safety principles and procedures, which can be applied to workplace environments. The course is intended to give you the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent fires from occurring and to respond effectively in the event of an emergency, ensuring the safety of yourself and those around you.
Throughout this course, you will learn about the legal requirements for fire safety, the principles of fire safety management, and how to conduct a fire risk assessment. You will also learn about the different types of fire extinguishers, how to use them effectively, and how to evacuate safely in the event of a fire.
This eLearning course takes 50 minutes to complete.
This module isn’t about the business property and compliance but about what staff need to be aware of to work safely, raise the alarm and evacuate safely. Some businesses do not allow their staff to use fire extinguishers so there are 2 versions. If you want to make information and procedures specific to your business give us a call to find out how we can help you.
The course is suitable for all operational staff in hotels, restaurants and bars to ensure they are aware of all health and safety procedures. Modules can be used as a complete programme or individually for specific training needs or refreshers. Individuals may like to develop their knowledge and confidence or use the module certificates at interviews. The programme will contribute to the guided learning hours for those staff completing a hospitality apprenticeship.
