Fire Marshal and Fire Safety Classroom Courses

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 mandates all business owners and employers to provide their employees with adequate fire safety training. Additionally, Article 18 of the order requires the Responsible Person to appoint one or more "Competent Persons" to assist with fire safety and emergency evacuations in the event of fire.

To ensure the designated workplace fire warden or marshal is competent in their fire safety training, additional training should be provided, commonly referred to as Fire Marshall or Fire Warden training.
