Fire & Emergency Warden

$155 (incl. GST)

This course provides students with an understanding of the roles and responsibilities of a fire and emergency warden, as well as factors involved in the safe evacuation of a workplace or site in an emergency. 

It is good practice to have a number of staff in your workplace who are dedicated fire emergency wardens and can assist other staff members and visitors should an emergency occur. Some organisations such as childcare centres, schools, hospitals and hotels need to have these in place by law under the Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) Regulations 2018.

Eligible for NZQA unit standard 18408.
