Fire & Emergency Warden Training
Every workplace in New Zealand must have people trained in how to evacuate the building in case of an emergency. So many people only think about fire being the reason for evacuating but in reality, there could be many reasons for evacuating.
The new Health and Safety at Work Act states that business and building owners must have trained competent staff able to manage emergency situations.
Our training courses are designed to your specific needs covering various types of emergencies from fire to chemical spills including natural disasters.
We run through both desktop and practical scenarios and reducing the risk of bad decision making.
Our trainers are qualified evacuation consultants who have an extensive knowledge of The Fire and Emergency New Zealand Act 2017, (Section 21A Evacuation Schemes for Public Safety) and (Fire Safety, Evacuation Procedures, and Evacuation Schemes) Regulations 2018. They will assess and build a training course to meet your needs. This is not some generic course that most training companies offer - this is real course for your staff with real learning.
