Yes, fire safety training is a legal requirement. As stated in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all employees need to undergo basic fire safety training - ideally at induction and, refresher training should be provided annually. This should be carried out by a competent person with suitable and sufficient skills and knowledge of fire safety.

Our online fire safety course will teach your staff the necessary skills and knowledge in fire safety and fire evacuation procedures. Suitable for care homes, offices, restaurants, schools or any type of workplace.

You can do a fire risk assessment yourself as long as you have the help of standard fire safety risk assessment guides. However, if you don't have the expertise to do the fire risk assessment yourself, you need to appoint a 'competent person' to help.

As an employer, you are the responsible person for ensuring fire risk assessments are carried out correctly, but that doesn't mean the employer has to do it themselves. They can appoint a competent person to do so. Our online fire safety awareness course will cover risk assessments and how to conduct one.

Staff should receive fire safety awareness training every 12 months to ensure they understand fire safety protocols and know how to respond in case of a fire. In some situations and for specific workplace members, more frequent training may be necessary.
