Fire Safety
Management
Where ever
you work, there should be a fire safety protocol in place. Many fires can be
prevented if there are trained and knowledgeable staff within the workplace.
Risk Safety
Services are here to help you. We have a vast amount of experience in fire
safety and control management. We can help you to set up a fire safety
management plan that will ensure all your staff are aware of the dangers of
fire.
If you have
a business with five staff or more by law you must have a fire safety management system in place.
An Emergency Plan
The first
thing we help you to achieve is a Fire Emergency Plan. This means that your
workplace needs a thorough risk assessment in order to identify what could
cause a fire, sources of ignition and the materials that could burn. Once you
know what the risks are, the plan will help you to manage them.
For example
if sources of ignition and flammable substances are stored together, they need
to be separated. Heaters should be placed in a safe position, where they can’t
be knocked over and avoid accumulating rubbish such as paper or boxes. It is
important too, that all exits are kept clear and fire doors remain closed.
Fire Extinguishers
We can
advise you about fire extinguishers, which ones you need for your particular
environment. We will advise you how they should be used. Having the correct
fire-fighting equipment is vital if you need to put out a fire quickly.
Fire Drills
We will
advise you how to teach your staff to carry out your fire procedure and this
will include fire drilling, which should be done on a regular basis to test
that the staff are aware of the fire management plan and can safely and calmly
evacuate the building in the case of fire. We will advise you on response times
and review the safety procedures during drilling.
Ongoing Regulatory Consultation
Risk Safety
Services can supply your business with a regular consultation with regard to
fire management. Ensuring that you comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire
Safety) order 2005 and supplying all the help and guidance you need to fulfill
your duties. We can even help you if a fire does cause damage and destruction,
by advising on how to minimize your business risks so that you can carry on
with the production of your goods or services, after such an event.
E-Learning
We also
offer an e-learning course in Basic Fire Awareness Training, Fire Extinguisher training and Fire Marshal Training for members of staff or management, who are
responsible for fire safety. The course includes an introduction to Fire
Extinguishers and teaches you how to be more aware of fire dangers and what to
