Fire Safety Training

When there is a fire in the workplace, every second matters. Having a trained staff who can act proactively and calmly is not just a good practice but is a legal and moral responsibility. Pal Education provides nationally accredited fire safety training courses in Perth thus providing workers across all industries with the knowledge and hands on skills to respond quickly to fire emergencies.

Located in Malaga, WA, Pal Education is a registered training organization (RTO) dedicated to providing practical and industry related training that meets Australian Standards and Work Health and Safety (WHS) obligations. Whether you are an employer who wants to build a safer workplace or a worker who wants to boost your credentials, our fire safety courses in Perth offer the right foundation.

Why Fire Safety Training Matters in Perth?

Western Australia has a few most demanding workplace environments in the country, be it construction and mining sites or office buildings. Fire risk is present in almost every industry and Australian WHS legislation needs employers to take all reasonably practical steps to protect workers from harm that includes fire related hazards.

Staff who are not trained are more likely to panic or put themselves or others at higher risk during a fire emergency. On the contrary, well trained employees can make the right decision in a few seconds by using the right equipment and following evacuation process along with minimizing any damage before emergency services arrive.

Investing in fire safety training is a genuine commitment to the wellbeing of your team and protecting your business assets along with lowering the potential for workplace injuries and loss.

PAL Education currently offers two core fire safety training programmes, each designed to meet specific workplace needs and delivered face-to-face at our Malaga campus.
