Fires in the British workplace cost hundreds of Millions of pounds every year and 80% of businesses suffering a fire never recover. Staff training is the key.

To help your business comply with the requirements of the Fire Precautions ( Workplace) Regulations 1997, we are able to provide two types of on-site, fire awareness seminars, professionally presented, with the use of laptop and projector, and with training aimed specifically at your work environment.
