Using Fire Extinguishers in Construction Environments Safety Training Video

This safety video program on Using Fire Extinguishers in Construction Environments discusses the types of fire extinguishers there are and when each type should be used. It also provides practical guidance on how to use a fire extinguisher employing the “P.A.S.S.” method.

When a fire happens in a workplace, often the first thing people do is panic. This can lead to the fire getting out of control and workers being hurt. But it doesn’t have to be that way. When workers know how to use a fire extinguisher to put out small fires before they become big ones, lives can be saved and damage can be minimized.

Areas covered in the program include information on:

• classes of fire and how they burn,
• extinguisher types- dry chemical and carbon dioxide,
• extinguisher types- water and foam,
• using a fire extinguisher,
• maintaining fire extinguishers, and more.

The safety video program comes with a quiz, a scheduling and attendance form, a training certificate, and an employee training log.
