Fire Protection for Oil and Gas Employees

OGS-3.2



Most workplaces have procedures and controls to prevent fires, but fire safety needs special attention on an oil and gas site. Fires are one of the most common emergencies to contend with on oil and gas sites, and can be one of the most harmful if not dealt with properly. This course should give employees the knowledge to safely react and respond to a fire emergency in their workplace. Employees will learn to recognize common fire hazards found on oil and gas sites, identify safeguards for fire prevention and protection, and identify procedures for emergency response and evacuations. This course is intended for oil and gas industry employees who are required to understand their responsibilities in a fire emergency. This course assists employers in meeting fire safety standards required by OSHA.
