fire safety training
Effective fire safety training is essential for protecting your people, property, and business. Ensuring your staff understand how to prevent fires, respond appropriately in an emergency, and follow your site’s fire procedures can significantly reduce risk and improve safety throughout your organisation.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, employers have a duty to provide employees with adequate fire safety information, instruction, and training. Regular fire safety training helps ensure staff understand the actions to take in the event of a fire while supporting compliance with current fire safety legislation.
At Argos Fire Protection, we deliver professional fire safety training for businesses, schools, healthcare providers, public sector organisations, landlords, and commercial premises throughout the South West and beyond. Training can be delivered at your premises for maximum convenience or, where available, at selected training venues.
Our courses are delivered by experienced fire safety professionals and can be tailored to reflect your building, fire procedures, evacuation arrangements, and operational requirements. Certificates are issued to delegates upon successful completion of training.
