Fire Warden & Fire Marshal Training
Give every floor and shift a trained person who knows what to do in the first critical minutes. Practical, site-specific training for offices, factories, hospitals, schools and societies in Pune.
The people who lead everyone else out
Fire wardens (also called fire marshals) are staff members who take charge of their floor or area during a fire alarm. They make sure the alarm has been raised, guide people to the nearest safe exit, check rooms and toilets on their way out, help anyone who needs assistance, and report to the assembly point so the person in charge knows whether the area is clear.
Good warden training is specific to your building. FIRENET trains wardens on your actual alarm panel, call points, exits, refuge areas and assembly points, so they are not learning in theory. Every session includes hands-on extinguisher practice and a floor-sweep exercise.
Warden responsibilities we cover
- Day-to-day fire prevention: keeping exits clear and spotting hazards
- Raising the alarm and calling the fire brigade (101 / 112)
- Floor sweeps and closing doors to slow fire spread
- Guiding people, visitors and persons with disabilities
- Roll call and reporting at the assembly point
- When — and when not — to use an extinguisher
