A&J Fire Extinguisher, a Brooklyn, New York-based fire extinguisher inspection and supplier service company, serving manhattan, brooklyn and other NYC locations, perform FDNY-licensed inspections for a multitude of clients, recently stressed the importance of employee fire extinguisher training for businesses.

Representatives of A&J Fire Extinguisher helped companies understand why it’s imperative that workers undergo focused fire extinguisher training specifically geared toward the building they’re in, emphasizing that a successful training program should encompass more than the basics of extinguisher operation.

“A good training program should empower trainees to feel more confident when locating fire sources within a building, while helping them determine how to cope with fire situations,” states Principal of A&J Fire Extinguisher. “Among the suggestions we have for business owners regarding what to include in a fire extinguisher training program are grasping the different classes of fire, understanding key fire risks and corresponding fire extinguishers, how to locate fire extinguishers, how to operate a fire extinguisher and assessing a fire situation.”

According to representatives, the purpose and structure of a building are two critical elements when determining its fire risks; additionally, say experts at A&J, it is important that the training program is tailored to reflect the scenarios or fire events that trainees will likely experience, the objective being to ensure trainees are able to identify primary risks of fire within the building.

These typically include a kitchen area, sources for electronics and heating systems.

“There are a plethora of factors to consider with regard to the usage of a fire extinguisher, and making sure a significant number of employees are trained in these scenarios can be the difference between life and death,” concludes Falack.
