The legal requirement
The Regulatory Reform Order (Fire Safety) 2005 and
the associated Health & Safety legislation place an obligation
on employers to ensure that their staff receive adequate fire safety training at the time when they are first employed and
on there being increased or changed risks. The level and frequency of staff fire training is determined by the type,
use and risk presented.
Morgan Fire Protection can advise you on the most suitable training programme for your employees.
