Training
Your staff learn what to do in the first seconds of a fire. Classroom theory plus real hands-on extinguisher practice, delivered at your site.
What it covers
Fire safety training for your staff, delivered at your premises. It is meant for businesses, stores, schools, residences and industrial sites in Quebec City, Levis and the surrounding region that want their people to react correctly when a fire starts. Each session pairs a classroom portion with hands-on extinguisher practice.
Why it is required
An extinguisher is no help if nobody knows how to use it. Many workplaces are required to train their staff on emergency procedures and the use of fire protection equipment, as required by the applicable standard and regulation. A trained team puts out a small fire before it spreads, and knows when to evacuate instead.
