Fire Safety

This training provides guidance on fire safety at the University, and should be undertaken by all staff.

All staff must receive fire safety training when they start at the University and at least every 3 years following. They should also receive an in-person induction in the main areas they work in to show them fire escape routes and doors, as well as be informed of fire alarms and assembly points.

Course outline

The areas of training consist of;

  • Introduction
  • Fire Prevention
  • In an emergency
  • Fighting fires

The training is mandatory for all staff and will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.

Accessing the course

The course is available for staff to enrol on People and Money.

Users should not login to Cardinus directly, using previous links, as their training will not be recorded in P&M.

Further guidance and advice on fire safety
