The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states all staff should receive basic fire safety induction training and attend a refresher session at pre-determined intervals.

‘Fire safety training should be continuous, commencing on the first day of appointment of new staff and continuing in the form of regular refresher training by a competent person’. BS 5588-12 2004 Managing fire safety

Most staff training sessions or demonstrations of equipment can coincide with the annual servicing of your extinguishers, due to them requiring regular test discharging and recharging under British Standards

Rather than the engineer just testing and recharging the extinguishers during the annual service visit and putting them back into service, your staff can benefit by having the equipment demonstrated to them by the engineer or gain first hand experience by discharging them themselves under the engineer’s supervision.
