Employers have a statutory duty to provide a fire safety induction and regular fire safety awareness training for their staff. "Tolley's Fire Safety Training Manual" aims to demystify fire safety law and define where fire safety training fits within the overall fire safety responsibility of organisations. "Tolley's Fire Safety Training Manual" is a unique guide on all aspects of fire safety training and is aimed at all those with responsibility for conducting fire safety training, in particular health and safety managers, fire safety managers and facilities professionals. Highly practical and user-friendly, the manual is split into three parts.

Part two - Training Modules - this section is a step-by-step guide to undertaking training, providing clear and easy to use information in a module format with supporting trainer's notes. Industry-specific fire information is also provided in this section.
Part three - Supporting information - this section provides further training notes and guidance for the trainer and includes FAQ's and a selection of post-course questionnaires. "Tolley's Fire Safety Training Manual" will provide your organisation with guidance and essential information for both the trainer and those being trained.
