Legal Requirements for Fire Safety Training
Fire safety training is governed by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Under this legislation, employers have a legal duty to provide appropriate fire safety training to all employees. This requirement is typically identified in your fire risk assessment, which may also recommend PAT testing and fire alarm systems as part of a comprehensive fire safety strategy.

Employers are required to inform, instruct and train employees about fire precautions in the workplace, including evacuation procedures and fire safety equipment use.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should fire safety training be conducted?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all employees must receive fire safety training. New staff should receive induction training, and all staff should receive refresher training at least annually. Fire marshals and wardens may need more frequent training depending on your risk assessment.
What's the difference between fire awareness and fire marshal training?
Fire awareness training provides basic knowledge for all staff about fire hazards, prevention, and evacuation procedures. Fire marshal training is more comprehensive and prepares designated staff to take a leadership role during emergencies, including using fire-fighting equipment and assisting with evacuations.
Can training be delivered on-site at our premises?
Yes, we offer on-site training which is often preferred as it can be tailored to your specific workplace layout, evacuation procedures, and fire safety equipment. This makes the training more relevant and practical for your team.
What certificates do participants receive?
All participants receive a certificate of attendance upon completion. Fire marshal training includes a more detailed certificate. Certificates are valid for the period specified in your fire risk assessment, typically 1-3 years depending on the role and risk level.
How many people can attend a training session?
Group sizes vary depending on the course. Fire awareness training can accommodate larger groups (typically 15-20), while fire marshal training works best with smaller groups (8-12) to ensure everyone gets hands-on practice with fire-fighting equipment. We can discuss the best approach for your team size.
Do you provide fire extinguisher training?
Yes, we offer practical fire extinguisher training as part of our fire marshal courses or as a standalone session. This includes hands-on practice with different types of extinguishers in a controlled environment, teaching proper techniques and safety procedures.
