Fire Extinguisher Training

Employees who work in environments with an elevated fire hazard risk must know how to safely operate the different types of fire extinguishers. This Fire Extinguisher course aims to familiarize employees with each of the 8 classes of extinguisher agents and their intended use.

National legislation states that, wherever there is a fire extinguisher, employees must also be provided with sufficient training in terms of how to use it. Fires are not as straightforward as people initially think, many of them require specialized protective agents and/or procedures to be put out.

Bulldog Safety’s Fire Extinguisher Training program is designed to help employees understand which type of extinguisher is compatible with a particular category of fire and how to safely use them.

TDG regulations are in effect for both commercial and non-commercial vehicles transporting restricted items.

Commercial Vehicle Cargo Securement

In Canada, the National Safety Code (NSC) Standard 10 details the rules for safely securing loads to commercial vehicles.

When these events occur both commercial vehicle operators and carriers can be fined and accumulate NSC points through the Ministry of Transport leading to further actions by authorities.    

Bulldog Safety offers a comprehensive Cargo Securement course that will educate carriers and commercial drivers of their responsibilities. This will ensure safety for the public, employees and carriers.
