FIRE EXTINGUISHER TRAINING
​

Fires can start quickly and spread rapidly. Over 150 major fires occur in workplaces on an annual basis. Fire is the third leading cause of accidental deaths. WorkSafe BC requires that education and training be provided to employees. Fire codes require extinguishers to be located readily around job sites. However, not knowing how to properly operate one can be dangerous. No matter what industry you’re in, or what size of business, all employers should have employees trained on how to properly use fire extinguishers on site. 

​Upon completion of this course you will receive a certification in compliance with Occupational Health & Safety Regulations. 

This course offers classroom instruction ONLY on how to safely and effectively use a fire extinguisher (there no live fire demonstration).  

Course topics include:

Proper application techniques of portable fire extinguishers
Identifying different classes of fire
