This course is for individuals who are designated floor fire wardens including supervisors, OH&S committee members and other safety professionals.
This course has been developed to educate wardens on their roles in the event of a fire and to educate personnel on the classification, growth and extinguishment of fires.
We use lecture format, group discussion/participation and audio/visual tools, as well as "hands-on" use of mock fire extinguishers in a simulated fire environment.

The current TDG laws have been with us for over 30 years. Over that time, the training component has stayed very consistent. Well, that is all about to change!
Last year, the Canadian General Standards Board created a new standard - CAN/CGSB-192.3-2020: Transportation of dangerous goods training, assessment and competency. This new standard radically changes how TDG training should be done.
Transport Canada has now stated they will adopt the new standard into law, requiring employers to create new documents and upgrade the way they train anyone involved in TDG.
Knowing which fire extinguisher to grab when a fire occurs helps employees ensure that property loss is kept to a minimum. In doing so, they also ensure their own safety. Certificate provided upon completion.
This class is a four-hour program that covers the basic types of fires and the chemistry involved in the extinguishment of those fires. The students will be trained on how to inspect and use a handheld fire extinguisher on a live fire system.
Fires start small and may be extinguished by well-trained, knowledgeable employees using the proper equipment. Without training, there is a much greater risk of the fire spreading and/or employees being injured by improper utilization of the extinguisher.
A major fire is one of the worst possible industrial disasters. Even small fires can produce dangerous levels of heat and choking smoke.
In the new age of Safety in the world and the work place, we offer Fire Extinguisher Training to companies and their staff. Training will help protect your staff and your property.
