Why provide fire training at your workplace?
|
|
- Each person conducting a business or an undertaking is legally required under the Work Health and Safety Act to provide fire training and safety information to their staff and other people
- One in three businesses will not reopen following a fire that’s resulted in serious property loss – regardless of how much insurance cover they had
- The Fire Brigade may not be readily available to respond to your business, they could be at other fires, their replacement fire brigades could be twice to three times as far away than they usually are
- The average cost to a business following a fire can exceed $70,000
