FIRE SAFETY TRAINING

Knowledge saves lives. And if you are responsible for employees or volunteers, you have a legal obligation to provide fire safety training.
Specifically, the Fire Safety Regulations require the responsible person to ensure their employees have training when they are first employed, when there are new or increased risks to employees, and also on a periodic basis.

HOW OFTEN IS FIRE SAFETY TRAINING REQUIRED?

Fire safety training certificates are not lifelong. Depending on the course and the provider, your certificate will be valid anywhere from one year to five years (fire marshal training certificates tend to be valid for less time as they require more extensive knowledge).
MHFS provides Basic Fire Safety through to Fire Warden/Marshal Training – all tailored to your specific requirements.
