Fire Marshal

Course
Fire Marshal

Course Aim:
The Fire Marshal Training course is designed to give the Fire Awareness training that every employee requires, and then expand to train Fire Marshalls on their role not only in the event of a fire, but ensuring that the ongoing Fire Safety of the business is kept to the fore.  It is vital to have well trained Fire Marshalls who can manage evacuations.

Do I need to have Fire Marshals?
Yes, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2006 states that you must have a sufficient number of competent people to perform evacuation duties as well as ensuring that the fire safety systems in your premises are fully functioning.

How many Fire Marshals do we need?
You need to ensure you have enough Fire Marshals to cover your business in the event of a fire. If you work in a small unit with 1 floor, you may only need 2 but if you are on a big site with several multi-storey buildings and run 24 hours a day then you will need to ensure you have cover for each floor and building for all of the shifts, accounting for lunch breaks, sickness and holiday cover.
