Safety Training for Custodial and Correctional Environments
Custodial facilities require a high level of emergency preparedness due to the potential for security risks, fires, and medical emergencies. Fire and Safety Australia (FSA) has worked closely with custodial service providers to deliver training programs that ensure staff can respond effectively to safety threats while maintaining security within facilities.
For several years, FSA has been responsible for training personnel who oversee the safety, security, and well-being of occupants in custodial settings. Our customised approach ensures that correctional staff are prepared for various emergency scenarios, from fire outbreaks to medical incidents.
