SAFETY TRAININGS AND HANDS ON INSTRUCTION BY KGICA
PLAN - IMPLEMENT - TRAIN - PRACTICE - REPEAT
FIRE EMERGENCY RESPONSE TRAINING
Our fire safety training courses, and emergency response training programs are customized to suit the size and structure of your organization, from training and drills involving core employees only, up to whole-staff and tenants training sessions.
Fire safety training is a key part of the fire plan implementation - the fire code requires staff to be trained and able to execute the procedures reliably.
KGICA offers unique time- and cost-effective methods to adjust the delivery and content for specific industries such as industrial, residential, retail, or office tower, while maintaining the same core message, and continuously improving KPIs.
Sessions can be run as a one-off event or scheduled on an annual basis to ensure training covers new employees and refreshes the knowledge of your existing team.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER TRAINING
Our comprehensive program covers all aspects of fire safety and fire extinguisher training. These programs include: the expected hazards related to early-stage firefighting, identifying the type of fire, the correct fire extinguisher required for a specific fire, and how to assess whether it is safer to intervene or retreat to safety. Training is hands-on, allowing your employees to familiarize themselves with the different types of firefighting equipment in your building or facility. For many industries, fire extinguisher training is mandatory. We offer both real fire extinguisher training (where permitted) as well using the latest technology fire simulators. These are a cleaner alternative that can be used indoors in any setting, and any weather condition, allowing trainees to practice the actual operation of fire extinguishers and be suitably prepared.

In either case, we supply all materials, including realistic props, sound devices, and PPE.
BOMB THREAT TRAINING
Bomb threats may be delivered by a variety of in-person or electronic means, and while most threats turn out to be hoaxes, they must always be taken seriously. How quickly and safely you react to a bomb threat could save lives, including your own. Our training starts with detailed instruction on responding to bomb threats, including recording of communications, alerting authorities, and coordinating the safe evacuation of personnel and the public when and if required. Simulations and role-playing are utilized based on real-life events encountered by Federal Law Enforcement Agencies. These exercises allow every participant to identify their strengths and weaknesses. It helps with engraining the implementation of their response plan and mitigation strategies to follow if a bomb threat occurs.

Our suspicious package training is hands-on, interactive, and fun with your employees, where we use actual packages and items and simulate step-by-step actions. This provides a great learning environment for employees to apply what they’ve learning from the training, and follow work safety procedures to gain exposure to more real-life situations, and how they differ from the false “Hollywood” image seen in movies.

By having these plans, you’ll be able to respond in the event of flooding and protect personal safety, while also mitigating against further damage, evacuating, securing the premises, storing and accessing the disaster kit and supplies, and notifying the relevant authorities.
TORNADO AND SEVERE STORMS
While some natural disasters can be predicted, most develop quickly and without warning, forcing us to make on-the-spot life-or-death decisions.
