Fire Awareness Training Aberdeen

Ask yourself this?

• If a fire broke out would you or your colleagues know how to tackle a small fire safely?
• Are you aware of the different types of extinguishers?
• Do you know how to identify which extinguisher is which?
• Would you know which to use in an electrical fire and which to use in cooking oil fire?
• Do you know how to evacuate your buildings safely?

“If your answer is NO to any of these
questions then please read on!”

 

It is now a duty of care to ensure that members of staff are trained in the use of Fire Extinguishers how to raise the alarm and fire evacuation procedures.
