A practical two-day course that equips delegates to carry out and record fire risk assessments in low to medium-risk premises, and meet the duty the Fire Safety Order places on the responsible person.
The course is delivered over two days at your premises. Day one covers fire, the law and where risk comes from; day two works through the assessment itself, ending with a full fire risk assessment exercise.
Fire risk assessment training teaches delegates how to carry out and record a fire risk assessment: identifying fire hazards, the people at risk and the precautions needed. KeyOstas delivers it over two days in-company, focused on low to medium-risk premises.
It suits the people who own fire safety for everyday commercial premises.
By the end of the two days, every delegate will be able to do the following.
State what the Fire Safety Order and related legislation require of the responsible person.
Find the flammable materials and ignition sources that create fire risk in a building.
Explain how fire and smoke spread, and how compartmentation and construction resist them.
Identify the people a fire would put at risk, and why.
Judge means of escape, travel distances, emergency lighting and signage.
Outline the BS 5839 requirements for fire alarm and detection systems.
