Perform Basic Fire Fighting

Workplace Fire Safety Fundamentals

This course is built around a unit standard covering the core skills, values, and knowledge needed for basic fire fighting in the workplace — particularly relevant to manufacturing, engineering, and other industrial settings where fire risk is part of the job.

What You'll Learn

• Fundamental fire fighting theory
• How to identify fire risks and hazards in a work environment
• Selecting and using the appropriate fire fighting equipment for a given situation

Who It's For

Anyone whose role touches manufacturing, engineering, or similar environments where basic fire safety competency is expected. On completion, learners are positioned to recognize workplace fire hazards and respond with the correct equipment to extinguish or control a fire before it escalates.

A compact, standards-based introduction rather than a deep specialist certification — a solid first step in workplace fire safety awareness.
