What is included in Fire Safety Awareness training?

Your Fire Safety Awareness Training covers how fires start and spread, legal responsibilities under NI fire safety legislation, common workplace hazards, correct use of firefighting equipment (like extinguishers and fire blankets), and emergency response protocols.

Who should attend the Fire Warden Training course?

Suitable for designated Fire Wardens or Marshals, as well as facilities managers, health & safety officers, and anyone with fire safety or evacuation responsibilities within the workplace.

Is Fire Safety training required by law in Northern Ireland?

Yes. Under the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010, businesses must provide “adequate fire safety training” to staff. This includes induction training, refresher training, and training for individuals performing roles such as fire wardens or risk assessors.

How often should Fire Safety training be refreshed?

Refresher training is generally recommended every 1 to 3 years, depending on risk and workplace changes. For formal roles like Fire Wardens, training is often valid for three years, with refresher sessions advised as needed.

How frequently must fire drills be conducted?

It’s best practice to conduct at least one fire drill annually, with records stored as part of your evacuation plan and fire safety documentation.

Are there legal requirements for appointing Fire Wardens in NI workplaces?

There’s no strict legal quota, but workplaces must appoint a sufficient number of trained Fire Wardens. The number should reflect building size, layout, occupancy, and the specific risks involved.
