Most workplace fires are entirely preventable. However, you are likely aware of the devastating effects they can have. Fires cause tragic loss of life, serious injuries, and significant damage to property or business continuity.
Consequently, health and safety legislation places a clear duty on all employers. You must establish robust policies and procedures to protect your team. Additionally, the law requires that all employees receive appropriate training. Our Level 2 course provides the essential knowledge your staff needs to maintain a fire-safe environment.

Syllabus
A range of subjects is covered including:
- The hazards and risks associated with fire in the workplace
- How fire risk is controlled in the workplace
