ERT FIRE TEAM COMPETENCY ASSESSMENTS
SERVICE OVERVIEW
Based upon over three decades of working with high hazard facility management teams across thirty six countries, EPS are very well placed at providing on site training frameworks and Emergency Response competency assessments.
With a wealth and depth of diverse knowledge, experience and expertise within emergency response and preparedness, EPS benchmark against industry best practice ensuring on site operational competency is fit for purpose.
Emergency response revolves around the fundamentals of effective training management systems, pre incident planning, procedures and competency assurance to ensure on site credible scenarios are brough to an effective and safe conclusion.
Competency assessments not only validate the skills and knowledge of Team Leaders and Members but also identify gaps which can be addressed enhancing site capabilities should an emergency occur.
Tradition and cultures inherent to high hazard emergency response teams can lead to lack of development and efficiency in line with industry best practice. By assessing both Team and Individual competence, the organisation will benefit from credible third party feedback reflecting knowledge, skills, capabilities and response resilience.
Specific role competencies for fire and emergency response should be established based on a comprehensive analysis of the expected response and job requirements.
