Is your workplace 'Fire Safe'? Applying E-learning Fire Safety training within a working environment is the most efficient way of ensuring your employees are fire smart.
The effect of any accidentally caused fire or explosion within the workplace can be devastating in terms of any lives lost, injuries, damage to property and the environment and also to the business community. Therefore we ask ourselves whether we are set up to manage both the risks and procedures to follow in terms of fire safety within the workplace. Fires can be caused by many things which we might not necessarily be able to see. Working with flammable liquids, dusts, gases and solids is hazardous and increases the risk of fire and explosions. The implementation of fire safety training will ensure immediate communication of fire safety policies between employees.
Adequate Fire safety training can be completed within minutes
EssentialSkillz (a leading supplier of world-class online Health & Safety training and risk assessment software) offer a short course on Fire Safety, the course is designed to deliver information on this key topic quickly and effectively.

DSEAR Regulations
The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR) concentrate on preventing or limiting the harmful effects of fires, explosions and similar energy-releasing events. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the DSEAR 2002 is concerned with protection against risks from fire, explosion and similar events arising from dangerous substances used or present in the workplace. They set minimum requirements for the protection of workers from fire and explosion risks related to dangerous substances and potentially explosive atmospheres and require employers to control the risks to the safety of employees and others from fire and explosions. For more information on the DSEAR, visit the HSE website.
