Workplace Emergency Management prepares the occupants of your facility to be able to respond to a workplace fire safely. We do this by giving them the knowledge and understanding of what a fire is, and the know-how to extinguish it safely, by the teaching of theory and the practical use of real emergency equipment at your facility. Workplace Emergency Management offers Fire Training in Sydney, Melbourne and across the country.

This Workplace Fire Training course is compliant with the requirements of AS3745-2010 and is aligned to the PUAFER units of competency. Please note this course is not a nationally recognised fire training course, and you will not be issued with a qualification.

Fire Training Courses:

Fire Training

Fire Training

Within these comprehensive training sessions, we cover the main priorities in a workplace fire emergency situation: how to respond, how to alert others, how to assess the type and size of the fire, what action to take and who to report to, as well as technical aspects of fire itself.

The practical aspects of the training include the correct and safe use and operation of onsite firefighting equipment, such as fire blankets, hose reels and fire extinguishers. This is known as First Attack Fire Fighting Training. This is also a component of our Fire Warden Training and Warden Training.

Fire Training - Extinguisher

Fire Extinguisher Training

Workplace Emergency Management offers standalone fire extinguisher training to enable confident and safe operation of fire extinguishers in a workplace fire.

This includes the selection of the correct extinguisher for the type of fire, what the different types of fire are, correct and safe techniques for the use and operation of the different types of fire extinguishers and practical exercises in the use of extinguishers.

Preparing those in your facility to correctly use a fire extinguisher is vital for ensuring they are as successful as possible if a fire occurs. However, we ensure that our training makes clear when it is no longer safe to operate a fire extinguisher so that the employee operating it can safely remove themselves from the situation before it worsens.

The safety of you and your team is our number one priority, which is why we aim to make everyone at your facility competent and confident in using emergency equipment, and in emergency situations in general.

Workplace Bushfire Emergency Planning

Pt 1: Businesses or Facilities in Bush Fire Prone Areas

Our expert trainers deliver comprehensive training that takes into account all of the unique factors of your facility that would be likely to have an impact during a bush fire, such as:

  • Weather
  • Results of impact
  • Available transportation
  • Identifying a designated assembly point
  • Identifying alternate route
  • Hazardous materials onsite
  • Security
  • Helping you have a safe and rapid response

In the event of a bush fire, the occupants of your facility need to know what to do. Workplace Emergency Management develops all-encompassing emergency procedures for your facility, and facilitates training in those procedures to enable those in your organisation to safely respond to a bushfire.

We also guide you in the Emergency Equipment you should have available in your facility, to provide you and your team with protection if needed.

Please note this course is not nationally recognised, and you will not be issued with a qualification.
