Practical fire fighting covering the equipment available in a workplace, what each type is for, and how to use it on a fire that is still small enough to fight.
Most workplace fires start small. Whether one is put out while it is still the size of a bin depends on someone nearby who is trained, equipped and does not hesitate.
This is the hands-on programme: which extinguishing medium suits which class of fire, how to approach and discharge with the exit behind you, and how to recognise the moment to stop and leave. Reading the pictogram on the wall is not the same as having done it.
