Fire Marshal vs Fire Warden 

A fire marshal is a professional trained to handle emergencies and enforce fire safety regulations. A fire warden is someone within a workplace or building who assists in case of a fire and makes sure people evacuate safely.

The tasks and training needed might be different from one place to another. However, this course covers training and education for fire marshals and fire wardens. It is important to check what the course teaches to see if it fits your needs. Both jobs are important for keeping people safe in fires and emergencies.

Key Benefits of Fire Marshal Training

Proven Track Record: With over 100,000 successful course completions, this training is highly regarded and essential for workplace safety across various industries.

Fire Safety Compliance

Fire warden training is essential for compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Depending on the size and use of the premises, competent people must be appointed to implement fire safety measures. These individuals need proper training, knowledge, and experience. 

Section 13 of the Order requires the appointment of a qualified person to handle firefighting duties, contact emergency services, and assist in evacuations. Failure to comply may lead to penalties, including fines or imprisonment upon conviction.
