Training Discipline: Fire Prevention Planning, Workplace Fire Hazard Recognition & Life Safety
Fire Prevention Plan Notice: Where a Fire Prevention Plan is required under applicable OSHA requirements, the employer is responsible for developing and maintaining the plan and ensuring that required information is communicated to affected employees.
Plan Elements: An applicable Fire Prevention Plan may address major workplace fire hazards, proper handling and storage procedures for hazardous materials, potential ignition sources and their control, the type of fire-protection equipment necessary to control major hazards, procedures for controlling accumulations of flammable and combustible waste, and procedures for regular maintenance of safeguards installed on heat-producing equipment.
Responsible Personnel: Where applicable, the Fire Prevention Plan should identify employees responsible for maintaining equipment and systems installed to prevent or control ignition or fires and personnel responsible for controlling fuel-source hazards.
Employee Information: Employees should be informed of the fire hazards associated with the materials and processes to which they are exposed and understand the portions of the Fire Prevention Plan necessary for their protection.
Fire Prevention vs. Emergency Action: A Fire Prevention Plan focuses primarily on preventing workplace fires and controlling fire hazards. An Emergency Action Plan addresses actions employees take during emergencies. Depending on the workplace, both programs may apply and should be coordinated.
Hot Work Notice: Welding, cutting, brazing, grinding, torch work, and other heat- or spark-producing operations may require additional controls, permits, fire-watch procedures, or specialized training based on applicable requirements and workplace conditions.
Fire Protection Systems: Employees should not disable, obstruct, modify, or interfere with required fire alarms, sprinkler systems, fire doors, extinguishers, suppression systems, or other fire-protection equipment unless specifically authorized and applicable procedures are followed.
Workplace-Specific Notice: Fire hazards vary considerably by workplace. Employers remain responsible for evaluating their operations, materials, equipment, processes, ignition sources, fire-protection systems, and applicable federal, state, local, contractual, and site-specific requirements.
Qualification Limitation: Completion of this course does not qualify participants as firefighters, fire inspectors, fire-protection technicians, code officials, fire-protection engineers, emergency responders, or other specialized professionals.
Training Certificate: Participants who successfully complete applicable training requirements may receive an A.R.G. Construction, Safety & Health Certificate of Training documenting completion of the Fire Prevention Plan (FPP) Safety Training program.
The certificate documents training completed and should not be represented as an OSHA-issued credential, firefighter certification, fire inspector certification, fire-protection license, or governmental certification.
