2. No Shortcuts to Training
It’s your 3am nightmare. The building and business you left behind a few
hours ago no longer exist. It’s just now a glowing, smouldering wreck.
Fire Kills. Ignorance Kills. Cuts Kill. Loss of income and customers is bad
enough. But if your business involves people you could not only be facing the
full horror of loss of life but also serious prosecution. Last year over 400
people died in fires, a horror that could cost you everything and live with
you long after the flames have died.
Many of these people died unnecessarily. Lack of training, hand in hand
with lack of knowledge, leads to panic. Panic leads to death.
The implementation of the regulatory reform order 2005 states that
responsibility for fire safety is now the business owners. Budget cuts are
leading to dilution of fire safety education yet legislation and prosecutions
are increasing.
There are people who can offer safety training at a price. But this is often
unregulated, unprofessional and may not protect you from prosecution
or your employees from danger.
Titan Safety Training, in line with its belief that safety is an absolute, have
partnered with one of the UK leaders in fire safety training, Royal Berkshire
Fire and Rescue Training Ltd, to produce safety training that goes above and
beyond just “ticking boxes” and produced accreditation that is recognised at
NVQ level as part of the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health Award.
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Training Ltd and Titan Safety Training share
the same values, that safety is an absolute, no shortcuts, no compromises,
just a total commitment to safety.
When it takes just seconds to lose a life to smoke inhalation, why would
you settle for anything but the best?
So, if you take fire safety training as seriously as Titan Safety Training and
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Training Ltd, then we should be talking.
Its clear that we share the same beliefs that…
Training Saves Lives
