Emergencies don’t wait — and when they happen, every second counts.
Whether it’s a fire, chemical spill, electrical fault, or medical emergency, your employees must know what to do, where to go, and who to help. Confusion costs lives.
At Ireland Safety Training, we provide a CPD-certified Emergency Preparedness & Response course online, designed for all industries across Ireland and the UK. It equips teams to stay calm, take action, and save lives in crisis situations.
Irish and UK legislation requires all workplaces to:
Develop and communicate emergency plans
Conduct drills and prepare employees
Appoint fire wardens and first aiders
Train teams in what to do during various emergencies
This course helps fulfil those duties, especially for general staff who aren’t designated wardens or medics.
Studies show that over 60% of employees are unsure how to act during fire, injury, or equipment failure. Training increases:
Confidence
Clarity
Speed of response
Reduction of injuries and damages
Common scenarios include:
Fires and evacuations
Medical incidents and unconscious individuals
Floods, gas leaks, or power outages
Aggressive persons or security breaches
Chemical spills or toxic exposure
You don’t need to be a hospital or factory to face a real crisis — even an office printer can cause an electrical fire.
Perfect for:
Office teams
Hospitality and retail workers
Warehouse and industrial staff
Schools, clinics, and care facilities
Contractors and field personnel
Course modules include:
What is an emergency? Types and triggers
Fire procedures and evacuation best practices
Assisting vulnerable or injured persons
Communicating during emergencies
Location and use of emergency equipment
Handling medical emergencies safely
Responding to gas leaks and power failures
Dealing with suspicious packages or threats
Personal responsibilities during crisis
Legal overview and post-incident reporting
Includes scenario-based learning, real examples, and a final CPD certification quiz.
