UK’s tallest residential tower protected
IFEDA, the Independent Fire
Engineering & Distributors
Association, has introduced a new
course, Understanding a Fire Risk
Assessment.
The Fire Safety Order 2005
requires that the Responsible Person
in a business must have a fire risk
assessment in place. British Standard
5306 parts 3 and 8 stipulate that a
fire extinguisher servicing technician
must confirm the presence of, and
check the contents of, a company’s
fire risk assessment.
Therefore this course has been
specifically developed to provide
servicing technicians with the skills
to know what to look for, and
importantly, identify any gaps in a
company’s fire risk assessment. The
course also covers key elements of
what must be covered in a fire risk
assessment, and provides an
awareness of current fire safety
legislation.
The course has CPD accreditation
from The Construction CPD
Certification Scheme and is an
addition to IFEDA’s existing
comprehensive, CPD accredited, fire
safety industry training courses.
Course dates, and the full syllabus
can be found at:
