OSHA 1910.157 states the following:

(g)(1) Where the employer has provided portable fire extinguishers for employee use in the workplace, the employer shall also provide an educational program to familiarize employees with the general principles of fire extinguisher use and the hazards involved with incipient stage fire fighting.

The employer shall provide the education required in paragraph (g)(1) of this section upon initial employment and at least annually thereafter.

Major Fire & Safety will come to your facility with loaner extinguishers, training media, and all necessary props and fuel to safely and effectively train your employees in the proper usage of fire extinguishers.

We use a hands-on real-world approach in our training to insure that in an actual fire emergency, your employees will know exactly what to do. Classes can be taylored to your schedule. Normally a class of 1-30 people will take between 45 minutes to an hour to complete. This includes media training, classroom instruction, and hands-on experience in a controlled live fire situation.
