Fire Safety at Work

This course is designed for all employees working in an employer’s premises. Its objective is to ensure compliance with the Law, and to provide every employee with an understanding of how to prevent fires in the workplace and what actions to take in the event of a fire.

The course comes complete with an assessment and on successful completion your staff will receive a completion certificate.

Through our Learning Management System (LMS) the employer can monitor and manage all courses purchased through the learning portal.

Employers are able to demonstrate compliance by ensuring staff regularly retake the course, the LMS records completion and the end of course assessment scores.
