There is a statutory requirement for businesses to provide all personnel with instructions and training in the emergency procedures to be followed in the event of any fire incident. This should take place as part of a general induction training program as soon as practicable following employment of the individual.

These individuals will require specialised training in order that they fully understand their roles and responsibilities.
