Description
Course Overview
A Fire Warden (or Fire Marshal) is the first line of defense in a fire emergency. This half-day intensive course is designed for managers, supervisors, and any staff member appointed to oversee fire safety duties.
Training at our centre bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world emergency response. Candidates will learn how to identify common workplace fire hazards, conduct vital safety checks, and lead safe evacuations. The course heavily emphasizes the legal responsibilities of the employer and the specific duties of the warden in liaising with fire services and maintaining life-saving equipment.
