Talk to usThere is no fixed number of Fire Marshals.
The size and layout of your premises, how many people use it, their mobility, the type of activity undertaken, and any shift patterns should be used to determine the number of trained Fire Marshals. As part of a fire risk assessment, we can advise on an appropriate number of marshals if you need it.
Refresher training is recommended every year, or sooner if your premises, staff or procedures change. Regular fire drills should be part of the plan.
