Fire Warden Training
The Fire Warden training course is designed to provide the specialised knowledge and training required for a person to be able to carry out the duties of Fire Warden in the event of an emergency or Fire.
It will raise fire awareness concerning the management and behaviour of people in a range of emergency evacuation situations and the necessary actions to be taken before – during and after an incident.
It will detail specific duties such as designated areas, who to report to, evacuating people with limited mobility, etc. The onus will be on prevention always being better than the “cure”.
