If you are the owner or employer of an office or shop, you are required by law to implement suitable fire safety measures. You must make sure your building is up to code before people visit it, or begin work in it. You should understand what duties you must fulfil to ensure your building meets suitable safety standards.
This fire risk assessment training course will familiarise you with fire safety law, how to carry out a fire risk assessment, and the fire safety systems, equipment, and procedures you must have in place. Understanding these is crucial to comply with legal requirements, to minimise the chance of a fire starting, and so people can evacuate your premises if necessary.
