Fire Prevention And Protection Fundamentals Training Ppt

Slide 1

This slide gives the definition of Fire Prevention and Protection. Fire prevention means eliminating the possibility of starting a fire. Fire protection is a plan that mitigates the damage when a fire occurs.

Slide 2

This slide discusses the importance of fire safety training for employees in a workplace. Staff actions in case of a fire are crucial to their safety and that of other people in the building. All staff members should receive basic fire safety training and attend refresher sessions at regular intervals

Slide 3

This slide talks about fire marshals in a workplace and also lists their responsibilities. A fire marshal or warden is mainly responsible for identifying potential fire hazards in a building.

Slide 4

This slide discusses the execution of an evacuation plan by fire marshals in case of a fire emergency. When the evacuation alarm sounds, each fire marshal must check the area (if safe to do so) which they are responsible for, to ensure it has been evacuated and report to the emergency coordinator for further instructions from the fire officer.

Instructor’s Notes: 

• Roll call system: In this, it is made sure that everyone has left the building and reached a safe place
• Fire marshal system: In this, the building is split into small manageable areas

Slide 5

This slide talks about the importance of conducting regular fire drills for staff to prevent fires. Once an emergency plan has been created and the staff has been trained in fire safety, it is essential to evaluate its effectiveness. You can do this by performing a fire drill, and these drills must be carried out at least once annually, depending on your fire risk assessment and the number of employees.

Slide 6

This slide discusses the importance of fire safety checks by fire marshals to help in prevention of fires. A fire inspection should be performed by fire marshals appointed from within the employees of your organization. Any favorable or unfavorable results should be documented in writing on a form created for that purpose.
