Fire Safety Training

In Kenya, it’s a legal requirement for certain members of staff to be trained in fire safety procedures – becoming your environment’s designated fire wardens as a result. The person trained should have a clear understanding of the overall duties and responsibilities they have as a fire warden. This will include what action they should take on the discovery of a fire, know the difference between different fire classes, which extinguisher to use for which fire and what the evacuation procedure is.

However, we encourage that all team and family members be trained to ensure that they know what to do in the event that a fire breaks out.  Opticom’s qualified fire safety trainers train on different topics including but not limited to; understanding the fire triangle, discovering a fire, types of fires, types of extinguishing agents, identification of which fire extinguishers to use and how to use a fire extinguisher. The training is designed to be as practical as possible to ensure that all bases are covered.
