About this Event

Every business in Northern Ireland is required to have trained Fire Wardens. In an emergency, these are the people who take charge — raising the alarm, leading evacuations, assisting vulnerable occupants, and liaising with the Fire & Rescue Service.

Could your team carry out this responsibility effectively if the alarm sounded today?

This interactive 3-hour workshop gives Fire Wardens the essential knowledge and hands-on practice they need to respond with confidence. Delivered by Diamond Systems — life safety and security specialists since 1987 — it combines compliance, practical demonstrations, and real-world learning.



✅ What You’ll Learn
  • Fire Safety Law in Northern Ireland – your responsibilities under current legislation
  • Role & Duties of the Fire Warden – from day-to-day checks to leading safe evacuations
  • Types of Fire & Extinguishers – how to choose the right extinguisher and use it safely, including a live demo
  • Evacuation Procedures – sweep searches, managing vulnerable people, roll call, and assembly point responsibilities
  • Best Practice in Workplace Fire Safety – housekeeping, signage, drills, and emergency planning
  • False Alarms & NIFRS Response Policy (2024 changes) – what they mean for your business and how to reduce unnecessary call-outs
  • Interactive Quiz – test your knowledge in a fun, engaging way
