    Further Information

    Is a fire warden mandatory in a workplace?

    Employers are obligated to ensure their employees' safety, including having effective emergency plans and procedures. The role of a fire warden is crucial in coordinating evacuation procedures, conducting regular fire safety drills, and ensuring that fire safety equipment is properly maintained. A fire warden can be particularly important in larger or high-risk workplaces, where the risk of fire and the complexity of evacuation procedures are greater. Appointing a fire warden is considered best practice for enhancing fire safety and ensuring compliance with WHS obligations.
