Why Choose Benfield Fire Safety's in-person, hands-on Fire Safety Awareness training?
- If your Fire Evacuation Emergency Plan (FEEP) requires that your staff may potentially have to use fire extinguishers, then you must train them to do so. Our in-person training includes the practical use of Fire Extinguishers.
- Our instructors (all former fire service officers with 30 years' experience), can also tailor the training to talk about specific risk factors for your industry type and risks specific to your workplace. We believe that training in their own workplace enables your staff to relate to the training more easily and thus make them more likely to act effectively in the event of an emergency.
- We come to you - no need for your staff to travel.
- Theory - Our experienced instructors create a friendly and inclusive learning environment to deliver an engaging theory lesson. They will give your staff the opportunity to ask questions about the risk in their specific workplace and relating to their specific day-to-day roles.
