Fire prevention and suppression system training is an essential aspect of kitchen safety. Your staff must understand fire protocols and preventative measures. Our training is designed to give your employees an overview of commercial kitchen fire safety and the basics of kitchen suppression systems. It also provides practical training.
We will teach you product information from manufacturers, codes, enforcement and standards, and a step-by guide for inspecting and maintaining your suppression system.
Many commercial kitchens bustle with activity. Servers race back and forth with hot plates while chefs whip up order after order over scorching equipment. Commercial kitchens are at risk of fire-related injuries and damage from deep-fat fryers and griddles, as well as range tops and broilers.
Although your suppression system is equipped to put out a fire, there are many things that a restaurant can do to prevent them in the first place.
Accidents and fires can still damage even the best-trained kitchens. It is crucial to have an emergency plan. These are some tips that will help you keep your customers, employees, and property safe in the event of a fire.
A power-down plan should be in place. A minimum of one person per shift should be trained to turn off gas and electrical power in an emergency.
Not only should kitchen employees be familiar with safety protocols for deep fryers and griddles, but they must also know how to use fire extinguishers, how to call an emergency number, and how to give basic first aid. Each year, staff members should receive refresher courses.
Prepare an evacuation plan. One staff member per shift should be designated as the evacuation manager, similar to the power-down plan. This person will decide when evacuations are necessary and how to evacuate everyone safely.
The next step after installing your fire suppression system is to train your staff! There is no better team than Gold Standard Fire Protection to equip your crew with the knowledge they need to prepare for or prevent fires. Call us for a consultation to set up a custom training plan!

Your kitchen is always at risk for potential grease fires. Water can actually spread these fires making it worse. Hot flames, hot equipment, electrical connections, cooking oils, and cleaning chemicals make for the perfect recipe for a disastrous fire.
