When a fire alarm sounds, people look to one person — the Fire Warden.
Fire wardens (also known as fire marshals or evacuation coordinators) play a critical role in managing emergency response, guiding evacuations, and helping prevent panic.
At Ireland Safety Training, we offer a fully online, CPD-certified Fire Warden & Evacuation Training course, ideal for workplaces across Ireland and the UK that need to train staff in emergency preparedness and fire leadership.
This course equips staff to:
Understand fire risks and emergency procedures
Take charge during evacuations
Support vulnerable individuals
Carry out pre-incident inspections
Use fire extinguishers (awareness only)
Liaise with emergency services
Fulfil legal responsibilities under Irish and UK fire laws
It’s essential for:
Designated fire wardens
Team leads or supervisors
Health and safety officers
Anyone involved in workplace emergency coordination
Under the Fire Services Act 1981–2003 (Ireland) and Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (UK), employers must:
Appoint responsible persons
Train staff to lead evacuations
Ensure emergency plans and drills are in place
Without this, employers face:
Fines and prosecution
Closure orders from fire officers
Liability for injury or death during an emergency
A trained fire warden helps to:

Reduce property damage through fast response
Quick, organised responses:
