INTRODUCTION The industry recognises that a major objective is to prevent incidents occurring, and, if they do occur, to control them and minimise their effect. It is important therefore to set common standards and to ensure that they are maintained. Before personnel can be assessed against standards they will require the knowledge and skills to enable them to carry out the tasks involved. They may also require basic training and practice before being assessed. The document sets out the Competence Statements and assessment requirements for Lead Fire Wardens. The employer has the responsibility to provide the company and site specific emergency response training and practice, most of which will be conducted at site on a regular basis as site drills and exercises. Revision 0 (28th October 2016) Page 5 of 29

SECTION A Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment A.1 Target Group for the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment The target group for the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment is personnel who have been nominated by their employer to be formally assessed in the role of a Lead Fire Warden during an emergency situation. A.2 Candidate pre-requisites for the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment There are no pre-requisites for the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment. A.3 Physical and stressful demands of the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment All personnel who participate in practical activities specified in this standard must be physically and mentally capable of participating fully. OPITO-approved Centres are therefore required, as a minimum, to ensure that prior to participating in practical exercises the delegate or candidate provides written confirmation that they deem themselves physically and mentally capable of undertaking all aspects of the training or assessment. Centres must also make the delegate/candidate aware that they must immediately inform the Centre staff if this capability changes at any time prior to, or during the programme. Delegates/candidates must be advised that they are required to declare any current or pre-existing medical conditions which may be exacerbated by, or impair their ability to complete, the training/assessment programme. Should this be the case, the individual may be required to provide an authentic medical certificate issued since any identified medical condition was diagnosed. The OPITO-approved Centre shall keep a record of the delegate s/candidate s declaration of fitness in accordance with their document control policy(s) or procedures. This information, along with summary details of the type of physical activities the delegate/candidate will be asked to perform, will be given to delegates/candidates by the OPITO-approved Centre and, if applicable, to their sponsoring company as part of the joining instructions. The responsibility for declaring any known current or pre-existing medical conditions that could have adverse effects to the individual s state of health while undertaking the training and/or assessment activities lies with the delegate/candidate and/or company sponsoring the delegate. Where doubt exists regarding the fitness of any delegate/candidate, the OPITO-approved Centre should direct the individual to consult a medical officer familiar with the nature and extent of the training. Note: Practical exercises should be designed and delivered solely to meet this standard, and must not place on the delegates any physical or mental demands other than those required to meet the Standard. Revision 0 (28th October 2016) Page 6 of 29

A.4 Aim and Objectives of the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment The aims and objectives of the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment are to formally assess the candidate in the role of the Lead Fire Warden during an emergency situation in a simulated environment. A.5 Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment Outcomes The assessment outcomes of the Lead Fire Warden Competence Standard are specified in the Performance and Underpinning Knowledge and Understanding criteria of the Competence Unit in Section A.8. A.6 Lead Fire Warden Competence Candidate Assessment The Lead Fire Warden candidate must be assessed by a suitably qualified assessor; refer to Section B.1 for the specific Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessor requirements. The candidate will be assessed against the performance and underpinning knowledge and understanding criteria specified in the relevant Unit(s) within Section A.8 of this standard under simulated conditions using a minimum of three scenarios. The relevant Lead Fire Warden Competence certificate will only be awarded if the candidate is successfully assessed against both the Performance and Knowledge Criteria. Candidate does not meet the Standard Where a candidate does not meet the required assessment outcomes: the assessor must clearly identify and record the outcomes which have not been met, and suggest any further training requirement. The Assessment Centre must provide the candidate and the candidate s employer with a written report identifying why the candidate was unsuccessful and suggest any further training requirement within 7 days of the assessment. If the candidate does not meet the requirements of the Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment Standard then no certificate will be awarded and the candidate must be re-assessed against the relevant Lead Fire Warden Competence Standard at a later date. A.7 Duration and Timing of Lead Fire Warden Competence Assessment There are no specific timings for the duration of the Lead Fire Warden Competence assessment(s). However, sufficient time and access to candidates must be arranged in order to ensure that all required performance and knowledge criteria can be suitably assessed.
