Unit Standard Title

Awareness Course

  • Perform Basic Fire Fighting (Level 2)

Facts and Statistics:

Few people are burnt to death in fires. Most people die from smoke and poisonous gases. Make sure you have an escape plan to guard you home and your family against fire. The purest air is closest to the floor.
The Fire Protection Association of Southern Africa reports a total fire loss (’99) of R2 356 853 000. This figure equates to approximately R4 million per day.
Formal dwellings have the highest reported fire fatalities followed by informal dwellings. A total of 51 369 fire calls were undertaken by Fire departments across the country.

  • 3825 of these were to dwellings,
  • 2240 to informal dwellings,
  • 421 involved flats,
  • 193 to outbuildings,
  • 76 involved hotels/boarding houses.
  • 61 hospitals,
  • 171 educational establishments/schools,
  • 42 churches,
  • 29 night clubs,
  • 173 offices.

The most common cause of fire in dwellings was:

  • Open flames
  • Electrical faults
  • Cooking
  • Arson
  • Smoking

Safety tips for your home:

  • When fire strikes, everything happens too fast to make a plan. Make your fire emergency plan NOW before you need it.
  • Have at least two exits from every room in your home.
  • Go through a practice drill every six months. Practice what to do in a fire (or any other) emergency.
  • Make sure everyone takes part in the drill; children, older adults and disabled people included.
  • Teach children never to go back in the house after they escape. Teach them not to hide under beds or in closets.
  • Take your children to nearby fire station to see the equipment that they use. That way they won’t be frightened of fire fighters in an emergency.

What the Law Says:

When there are 10 or more employees, for every group of up to 50 people in the workplace, (or in the case of a shop or an office for every group of up to 100 people), at least one person, who is in possession of a valid certificate of competency in first aid, must be readily available during normal working hours.

Facts and Statistics: First aid is the emergency treatment provided to the patient before the medical personnel arrive. It can be anything from giving mouth to mouth resuscitation, or to putting an ice pack on a swollen ankle. In any first aid situation the provider must remain calm and assess the emergency situation in order to take the correct form of action.

  • Lack of oxygen can cause brain damage within 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Loosing blood is a threat, therefore one of the priorities of the first aider is to stop the Bleeding.
  • Be aware that shock is possible and even likely in the wake of severe injury.
  • A person with neck, back, or leg injuries should not be moved except by professionals, unless it is absolutely necessary.
  • Burns can result from not just heat, but chemicals as well.
