The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires employers to provide adequate training for their staff in general fire precautions and the use of fire extinguishers.
The government guide states “The actions of staff if there is a fire are likely to be crucial to their safety and that of other people in the premises. All staff should receive basic fire safety induction training and attend refresher sessions at pre-determined intervals".
Ask yourself, would you or your staff confidently;
- Know what to do in the event of a fire?
- Know the correct type of extinguisher to use on paper, electrical fires or burning oil?
- Know how to operate a fire extinguisher if you needed to use one?
- Ever get the opportunity to practice the safe use of an extinguisher outside of a fire situation?
