Key Learning Objectives

Types of Fire Extinguishers: Understanding the different types of fire extinguishers (Class A, B, C, D, and K) and which kinds of fires they are meant to combat (e.g., electrical, grease, wood, or flammable liquids).


PASS Technique: Teaching the basic operation of a fire extinguisher using the PASS acronym:

  • Pull the pin.
  • Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire.
  • Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent.
  • Sweep the nozzle from side to side.


When to Use a Fire Extinguisher: Helping employees recognize when it's appropriate to use a fire extinguisher and when it's better to evacuate. Understanding the size and location of the fire, potential hazards, and ensuring a safe escape route.


Fire Extinguisher Inspection and Maintenance: How to regularly check extinguishers for charge, expiration dates, and physical damage to ensure they are in working condition.


Fire Prevention and Preparedness: Promoting general fire safety practices, such as reducing fire risks in the workplace and having emergency procedures in place.


Hands-on Practice (if requested): Practical experience using a fire extinguisher on a controlled or simulated fire to reinforce understanding.

Training Goal

This training ensures that employees are prepared to act quickly and safely in the event of a fire, reducing risks to themselves and others.
