About this skill
Raising the alarm is part of the Fire and emergencies playlist. It gives teams a prompt to review the alerting arrangements that apply at their own workplace.
Before viewing, identify the alarm and communication systems used on site. Afterwards, discuss any questions the video raises about responsibilities and the information that needs to be communicated.
What to focus on
- Identify the alerting arrangements used at your site.
- Discuss who has which responsibility when an alarm is raised.
- Review the information the team needs to communicate.
When this is useful
