Fire Safety on Waste Sites - Two Day Course

Delivered over two non-consecutive days by experienced CIWM trainers and the Fire Protection Association, the course will provide an opportunity to identify options for fire protection and information needed for a Fire Prevention Plan.

Overview

Day 1: This is a generic fire prevention course to enable delegates to gain knowledge and discuss how to best protect against fire or the effects of fire in general

Day 2: This course will help you to understand the link between how you manage your waste and resources site effectively; utilising appropriate infrastructure, housekeeping and monitoring/supervision systems in order that waste fires are prevented or can be dealt with appropriately to prevent harm to human health, the environment, property damage and minimise business interruption.
The course tutors will use presentations, exercises, case studies and activities throughout the 2 days. There will be a project for delegates to complete between day 1 and day 2 and final assessment at the end of the course.

By the end of this course you will be able to:
• Identify key legislation and guidance relevant to fire prevention for waste facilities
• Explain key principles of fire risk assessment and identify how they relate to a Fire Prevention Plan (FPP)
• Explain causes and consequences of fires within waste and recycling facilities and how these can be prevented
• Explore options for how to comply with FPP requirements using latest guidance, including WISH guidance and EA guidance (as appropriate)
• Be aware of the need for an appropriate justification when a FPP may be contrary to the Environmental Regulators guidance
• Know what to consider when creating the plan for your site including the restrictions of your site and your fire risk assessment
• Explain how you could ensure that the FPP can be implemented and monitored effectively on site.
