We will then move on to explain the duties of the Responsible Person and Fire Wardens.
• Unit 2 – Fire behaviour: This unit will cover the different types of fire behaviour, as well as how people react when they see flames. We will explore a number of different ways that fire can start and spread as well as how people react when they are encountered with fire. The unit will then cover different evacuation procedures which can be in place.
• Unit 3 – Prevention and protection: We will now move on to look at how fires can be prevented and ways to protect life if a fire does start. Many lives can be saved by simply putting in place prevention methods. This unit will explain the most common fire prevention methods used as well as fire protection such as alarms, fire doors and emergency lighting.
• Unit 4 – Fire extinguishers: In this final unit we will look at different types of fire extinguishers and when these are used.
