Fire and Emergency Warden Course
Conducted by our experienced fire service and emergency response trainers, this course is designed to train participants to perform the role of Warden, but not Chief Warden, in their workplace emergency control organisation (ECO). Fire Wardens perform a critical role in ensuring that businesses are able to respond effectively to emergencies and protect their most important asset, people. To enable wardens to perform this role they need effective training. This course provides the minimum competency requirements to carry out this responsibility. Workers from all industries and sectors will benefit from this training.
Workers who may be required to operate firefighting equipment in the workplace to combat small fires should also attend our Fire Extinguisher training. Supervisors/Managers or workers who have a primary liaison responsibility with emergency services and are required to make decisions in relation to peoples safety during an emergency in the workplace should also attend our Chief Fire Warden training.
