Our annual fire extinguisher training reinforces practical handling of extinguishing equipment and builds the routine necessary for emergency situations. With a duration of only one hour for 8-10 participants, additional employees can be trained cost-effectively.

Evacuation Training according to German Occupational Safety Law §9 and §10 ArbSchG

According to §9 and §10 of the German Occupational Safety Act (ArbSchG), employers are required to establish evacuation procedures. While specialized evacuation coordinator training is not legally mandated, it is practical and valuable for most organizations.Our training program provides more than evacuation procedures. We also teach situation assessment, enabling participants to make informed decisions about whether evacuation is actually required. Additionally, we support evacuation drills through professional consultation, observation, and debriefing.

Combined trainings

We recommend designating the same personnel as both fire safety and evacuation coordinators. Our combined training programs are cost-efficient and workplace-oriented.
