Fire Safety Level 2 Rqf Qcf

Introduction

Of all the dangers the majority of workers across the UK face every day, few can be more terrifying or potentially disastrous than fire. It takes no more than a few seconds for a minor incident to become a wholly out-of-control inferno the likes of which has the potential to cost countless lives. Finding yourself face to face with a fire represents a quite incomparable test, as to make the wrong decision really could lead to catastrophic consequences.

Our Fire Safety courses have been designed to communicate all the basic teachings associated not only with tackling small fires, but preventing fires from occurring in the first place. With a good understanding of fire safety and a proactive attitude, risks can be reduced exponentially.

Overview

All businesses across the UK are required by law to provide basic fire safety training for all employees at least once each year. Our Fire Safety Level 2 courses have been created with safety of each and every worker across the board in mind – anyone working in any business area could benefit from the course’s content.

Level 2 teachings take things far beyond the basics to touch upon the professional management for fire safety within the workplace, better enabling any given employee to become a qualified fire warden or marshal for the business. Our Fire Safety training courses are also ideal when approached as annual refresher courses, as well as being perfect for first-time fire safety training purposes.
