Benefits
Organisations are well aware of the implications of emergency situations at their place of work with regards to injuries to personnel, the surrounding community, the environment and potential loss of business. This course will enhance the firefighting and team working skills of an organisation's emergency response personnel supported and guided by their own team leader by offering challenging training scenarios in realistic situations. Having a well-trained competent response team will support strategic contingency plans when an initial response by onsite personnel can mitigate the potential devastation that can be caused by a variety of emergency situations.
