Why do you need fire evacuation training?

Fire safety training is a legal requirement of the Fire and Emergency NZ Regulations and must be part of an Emergency Response Plan under the Health & Safety at Work Act. It is vital that your staff are trained in fire safety, this includes the use of fire extinguishers and the role of fire wardens.

Nothing can replace the personalised guidance offered by in-person training. Our Fire Evacuation Training courses are designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of fire safety principles and the practical application of emergency response procedures in aged care facilities.
