HS3 - Fire Safety and Evacuation


Course Overview

Having completed this course you should be able to take the steps necessary to prevent fire in the workplace, and deal with it effectively should it occur.

Fire is probably the biggest risk to life that most people face in the workplace. It is, therefore, amazing that many people have little or no idea about the common causes of fire how to deal with it and how to escape safely from the scene, should one occur. This course deals with all three of these vital subjects, and successful completion of the course could literally be the difference between life and death.

The Fire Regulations place stringent responsibilities upon employers aimed at ensuring both fire prevention, and the safe evacuation of employees in the event of a fire. This course will ensure that you have the necessary knowledge to play your part in cooperating with their employer in the implementation of fire safety in the workplace.

The course is divided into 6 sections covering the following areas:

  • The responsibilities of employers and employees for fire safety
  • Fire safety
  • Fighting a fire, including the correct use of fire extinguishers
  • Safe evacuation procedures
  • What to do if trapped by a fire
  • Dealing with fire casualties
