Cosa sapere prima del test

Under regulation 43 of the model WHS Regulations, the PCBU must prepare, maintain and carry out an emergency plan, and train workers in it.
The AS 3745 colour system uses white helmets for chief and deputy chief wardens, yellow for floor or area wardens and red for wardens.
In Queensland, new workers must get general evacuation instructions within 2 days of starting, and evacuation practice is required at least once a year.
Queensland bans obstructions within 2 m of a final exit and bans chocking open doors to fire-isolated areas.
Class F fires involve cooking oils and fats; the oatmeal-band wet chemical extinguisher is made for them.

What does a fire warden do?

A fire warden helps keep exits and equipment ready, and in an emergency leads an orderly evacuation of their floor or area, checks rooms and reports to the chief warden.

Is warden training required by law in Australia?

WHS laws require the PCBU to give workers information, training and instruction on the emergency plan, and some states add rules, such as Queensland's evacuation instructions. Your employer arranges this training; this course is background knowledge only and does not replace it.

What colour helmet does a chief warden wear?

White. Under the AS 3745 colour system, deputy chief wardens also wear white, floor or area wardens wear yellow and wardens wear red.

Should a fire warden fight the fire?

A warden's main duty is to evacuate people safely. Use an extinguisher only if it suits the fire, you are trained, the fire is small and you can get out safely.
