It is important that all staff have even a basic level of training when it comes to fire safety. This will help to ensure that any fires within your business are dealt with effectively and the risk of them spreading and causing damage is reduced.
If you want to ensure that your staff have the basics all covered in fire safety then the key points that you need to cover include:
If they have knowledge and understanding of these things, then they are most likely to have all that they need to help should a fire occur.
The best way to protect your business against fire is to implement the basic fire safety rules. These rules are:
The first aid at work qualification will last for three years before it needs to be repeated.
Someone who is trained in first aid does not have a legal obligation to provide first aid to someone. However, there is a moral obligation for them to help the casualty. Especially in situations whereby refusing to give first aid could result in the death of a casualty.
It is possible for a first aider to be sued after providing first aid to a casualty. However, it is worth being aware that no legal precedent has been set in the UK for an individual to successful sue someone who has given them emergency first aid.
The 5 principles of first aid are to preserve life, to prevent the escalation of an illness or an injury, to promote recovery, to provide pain relief and to protect those who are unconscious.
The 4 mail legal considerations relating to first aid are consent, duty of care, negligence and recording.
Workplace safety rules will often differ depending on the nature on the business and the type of work activities it completes. generally, safety rules might include:

When it comes to first aid the number of first aiders that you have will depend on the number of employees that work within the premises. The recommendation of numbers of first aiders is just that, a recommendation.
It is recommended that you have a first aider for every hundred employees that your business has. Although you will need to assess your own risk factors and decide whether or not this number works for you or you need more.
Once you have used a fire extinguisher on a fire, even for a short time, it will need to be recharged. It will also need to be recharged and refilled once it has met a certain age. Foam, powder and water extinguishers may need to be discharged and tested every five years and possibly filled at this time too.
You need to replace your fire extinguisher every 10-12 years.
So long as a fire extinguisher is looked after and is serviced on a regular basis, it should last for as long as ten years before it needs to be replaced.
It may seem difficult to promote fire safety in your workplace, but the truth is that you may just be approaching it in the wrong way. The best way to try and promote it is to ensure that your staff appreciate that fires do happen and rather than thinking that it won’t happen to them, remember that the risk is always there.
In order to extinguish a fire there are some simple steps that you can follow. You want to:
Following these steps is going to give you the best chance of stopping a fire from spreading.
Fire hazards cover anything that could impede the function of any fire protection methods that are in place in a business, as well as anything that could be seen to inhibit fire safety.
An example of a fire hazard is an obstruction in from of the fire exit or main fire exit route in a business. Another would be if there was a fire alarm that was no longer working. Both of these can be a dangerous risk during a fire when people need to escape.
There are six main fire extinguisher types that you can use. These are water, foam, CO2, powder, water mist and wet chemical. Each of these types of extinguisher is going to be suitable for a different type of fire and are identifiable by their colour.
It is important to know which type is going to match which fire, otherwise you can make the situation worse. You can provide training for this, however, you can also display posters around your business for your staff to use in an emergency.
In order for a fire to start and then continue, there are three main elements in the fire triangle. These three things are oxygen, heat and fuel. Without one of these, the fire won’t be able to carry on burning. This is how a fire extinguisher works.
