Fire Safety Training
Managing Fire Safety has to be a priority in all places of work and in every home. House fires cause 30 – 40 deaths per year in Ireland with chimneys and cooking being the most common causes of fires in Irish homes.
Many businesses will never recover from the loss of assets and damage to property as a result of a fire in the workplace.
Arson is a major cause of fires in Irish homes and in places of work, a simple Fire Risk Assessment can highlight potential fire hazards such as bad housekeeping which often provides an opportunity for arson.
With fire hazards identified fire prevention controls can be implemented.
