During a fire emergency, the first few seconds decide safety outcomes. This HSEdx micro-course explains exactly what to do in case of fire—from raising the alarm and calling for help, to evacuating safely and reporting at the muster point. Learners will understand how to respond calmly, protect themselves from smoke, support others without taking unnecessary risks, and follow basic emergency rules such as using staircases, checking doors for heat, and never re-entering the building. The course is designed for workers and supervisors to build quick, correct decision-making during fire emergencies.
